Only a few games have been played in the Bundesliga so far, with Mainz 05 placed 17th and Bayer Leverkusen sitting in the 14th position.

Mainz 05 form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Bundesliga game of the season here at OPEL ARENA. Last season these fans witnessed 5 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses from Mainz 05's 17 home games. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Mainz to get some points in this home game.

The fans are hoping that Mainz will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-4 away loss in the Bundesliga game against Union Berlin (placed 9th). A defeat was the result before that one, 0-4 away at Union Berlin.

As you see from the result above, Mainz suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

Early season league goal statistics from Mainz 05's 1 home game: 1 goal, 4 conceded.
