Mainz vs. Union Berlin – Prediction (Bundesliga – 09.11.2019)

Preview and Teams Comparison.

This will be the seventh competitive meeting between Mainz and Union Berlin. Mainz had the better head-to-head record from the previous six matches in Bundesliga 2 between 2001-2004 (W4 D1 L1).

Mainz suffered their biggest ever loss in the Bundesliga as they fell 8-0 to RB Leipzig last time out, in what was their fourth league game this season in which they failed to score. Another defeat here would mark another depressing milestone – it would be the first time the club have lost eight league fixtures after 11 matchdays. Jean-Paul Boëtius’ (FSV) two league goals this season arrived before the 30th minute. The hosts have won their last five Bundesliga fixtures against newly-promoted teams, including both this season – both those games saw the away side on the day open the scoring by the 15th minute, before conceding a first-half equaliser. Additionally, Mainz have scored a first-half opener in four of the six league games that they’ve found the net this season (W2, L2).

At home, Mainz are yet to concede in the 30 minutes following half-time. Union have scored five of their ten Bundesliga goals after the 75th minute. Mainz have been awarded two yellow cards in every Bundesliga home game this season. Union have averaged 1.25 yellow cards and 0.5 red cards per Bundesliga road trip this season.

Union Berlin travel here after winning three of their last four competitive games (L1), opening the scoring in all three victories, and keeping a clean sheet twice. The one loss across that period was the only game that they were trailing at half-time. Sebastian Polter has scored Union’s last two Bundesliga goals – both were penalties netted after the 85th minute. Alarmingly, the visitors have conceded the opener in every away league game this term (D1, L3) and are yet to score a first-half away goal – in fact both their away strikes were netted after the 75th minute.
