FSV Mainz 05 form and stats

Impressive finishing from Burkardt and Stach secured the home win 3-0 against VfL Wolfsburg in their previous game. Midfielder Anton Stach was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.35. Stach scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

Prior to that match, the Mainz manager Svensson faced defeat when travelling to VfB Stuttgart and losing 1-2.

With the team playing at home given a winning probability of around 80% by the bookmakers, any useful result for the away team would be a surprise.

The visitors lost zero of these matches by a margin of at least two goals.

After this away game Mainz return home for a Bundesliga game against Hertha BSC. That game is only three sleeps after this.
