Frankfurt vs Mainz prediction: Worrying recent form
Key statistics:
- Frankfurt have picked up just one win in eight matches in all competitions.
- Mainz are winless in nine of their last 10 Bundesliga matches.
- Both teams have scored in seven of Frankfurt's last ten matches.
Correct score prediction: Frankfurt 2-1 Mainz
Frankfurt are unbeaten in their last three Bundesliga game and secured a 0-0 draw against Napoli in the Champions League in midweek.
Mainz, on the other hand, have picked up three wins in the Conference League, but they have not been able to translate the form in the league.
Die Nullfunfer have taken just one point from the last 15 available in the Bundesliga, but they scored in four of their last five game. Thus, we are backing Frankfurt to pick up a win here.

Frankfurt preview: Need to return to winning ways
Since their 6-4 win against Borussia Monchengladbach, Frankfurt have struggled to maintain consistency. They lost three and drew once before winning 2-0 against St Pauli.
After that, they have drawn two games and lost to Borussia Dortmund in the German Cup. Toppmoller is currently missing four players, with the injury to Can Uzun potentially hurting them badly.
Predicted lineup: Zetterer (GK), Kristensen, Koch, Theate, Doan, Larsson, Skhiri, Brown, Knauff, Burkardt, & Bahoya
Last five matches
- Napoli 0-0 Frankfurt
- Heidenheim 1-1 Frankfurt
- Frankfurt 1- 2 Dortmund
- Frankfurt 2-0 St Pauli
- Frankfurt 1-5 Liverpool
Mainz preview: Can they pick up a win?
Since beating Augsburg 4-1 away from home, Mainz have yet to win a Bundesliga match. They are on a wretched run of form and need a strong performance to turn it around.
Predicted lineup: Zentner (GK), Hanche-Olsen, Maloney, Kohr, Mwene, Sano, Amiri, Widmer, Nebel, Hollerbach & Lee
Last five fixtures
- Mainz 2-1 Fiorentina
- Mainz 1-1 Werder Bremen
- Mainz 0-2 Stuttgart
- Stuttgart 2-1 Mainz
- Mainz 1-0 Zrinjski
Player to watch: Robin Koch
The former Leeds United defender has been the pillar of strength at the back for Frankfurt. The German centre-back has started in nine games and scored two goals.
Koch was outstanding against Napoli in midweek, and another strong performance is needed from him.
