Mainz vs Bayer Prediction: Betting on a Hard-Fought Draw

One of the matches of Round 4 of the Bundesliga will be Mainz vs Bayer. Last season the teams exchanged home victories, and in the upcoming game the bookmakers did not find a favorite, considering that the opponents have approximately equal chances of success.

Mainz

A reach of Round 2 of the German Cup and seven points after three matchdays shows that the Carnival club is in excellent form. They got a nil-nil draw with Union at home, victories over Bochum and Augsburg (2:1) on the road. The result is fantastic. However, Mainz was lucky with the schedule at the start of the season and they did not encounter an opponent of Bayer's level before the start of the season. Before the start of the fourth round, the 05ers are in fourth place, the Champions League zone.

Bayer

At this rate, Gerardo Seoane's dismissal is not far off. It's no joke, the Eleven were knocked out of the German Cup by some Elfsborg. They lost in the championship to Dortmund, Augsburg, and Hoffenheim. To the latter, the result was 0:3 in their arena. We cannot say that Bayer deserved such a defeat, but we won't be looking for excuses either. In the standings, the Eleven are in the relegation zone, two points behind Eintracht.
