H2H: Freiburg vs Mainz – Score Prediction (Bundesliga

H2H: Freiburg vs Mainz – Comparison.

Freiburg’s Lucas Höler has scored his last six league goals during matches producing over 3.5 goals. Meanwhile, Jean-Philippe Mateta has netted Mainz’s opener in three of his four goalscoring competitive matches this campaign. Only one of the last 22 Bundesliga H2Hs witnessed both teams score before HT.

Freiburg Insights.

Freiburg’s 3-0 away loss in their last outing extended their winless Bundesliga streak to six games (D3, L3), with all three draws ending 1-1. That result continued a recent trend too, as the opener has arrived within 35 minutes in each of their seven Bundesliga matches so far, with all subsequently witnessing the same HT/FT result. At home, the ‘Breisgau-Brazilians’ have picked up just two points (D2, L1), but they’ll take encouragement from the fact they have scored the opener by the 15th minute in all three games here. Unsurprisingly, a league-high 100% of their home matches have witnessed over 1.5 goals before HT (2.33 first-half goals on average).

Mainz Insights.

With just one point after seven rounds (D1, L6), Mainz 05 are enduring their worst start to a Bundesliga campaign in the club’s history. A 2-2 home draw in their last top-flight outing was noteworthy though, as each of their previous six Bundesliga matches have now seen the opening goal scored by the 40th minute. Here, the visitors make this trip knowing that if they lose, it would be the first time ever that any Mainz side has lost their opening four away fixtures of a new Bundesliga campaign. To claim victory however, the ‘Nullfünfer’ will likely need to score over 1.5 team goals, as they won the previous five top-flight road trips to Freiburg when they achieved that.
