This match features two teams living in the basement of the Bundesliga, Werder Bremen holding 13th place and Mainz 05 lying 14th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

Insights:
  • Werder Bremen have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Mainz 05 have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

The hosts Werder saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Bundesliga. That game was an away game at Borussia Dortmund, so at least Werder are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Werder are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture.

Werder Bremen form and stats

With 3 Bundesliga wins, 4 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Werder Bremen are certainly not brimming with confidence. It's trouble wherever Werder are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. With Werder having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager F. Kohfeldt.

Werder faced defeat in their previous match, away at Borussia Dortmund (1-4). Preceding that match was the home game against RB Leipzig that was lost 1-4.

There will be little rest for Werder after this match as they are travelling to Union Berlin for a Bundesliga game in only three days.

The Werder fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 14 matches. Werder have conceded 23 from these games.

Mainz 05 form and stats

Playing away, Mainz 05 have won 4 games, drawn 4 and suffered 6 defeats in the Bundesliga this season. Momentum is building for Mainz in their away games, having won their two previous outings.

Mainz play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-2 victory visiting Köln (placed 17th). A draw for Mainz 05 before that, at their own venue hosting Arminia Bielefeld (1-1).

The end of the last match, against Köln, was very satisfying as Leandro Barreiro scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

A quick return to home after this game, as Mainz 05 are hosting Bayern München in the Bundesliga only three days away.

The visiting Mainz 05 have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 18 goals from 14 games. Mainz's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 27 goals from these trips. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Mainz 05 - Werder 0-1. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: four - two - four (Werder wins - draws - Mainz 05 wins). As for goals, seven matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.
