Union Berlin VS FSV Mainz 05
Lower-level clashes will be re-served midweek when Union Berlin hosts Mainz 05. They meet in the 28th week of the Bundesliga which is broadcast live from the Forsterei Stadium. Each will try to win points to avoid the threat of relegation.
Union Berlin had just played the capital’s derby against Hertha Berlin only to be crushed with a landslide score. They left on Saturday (5/23) and had to surrender 4-0. The match was indeed one-sided where the host managed to release 8 shots on target, while the visitors did not give a reply at all.
Interestingly, the goal rain also occurred when Mainz 05 hosted RB Leipzig the next day. However, this time the host is the victim with a score of 0-5 through Timo Werner’s hat trick. This defeat was fatal because it forced Mainz 05 to land above the red zone with a difference of three points.
The problem is, the away record this season is also still dominated by negative results. Achim Beierlorzer’s forces have only won 4 times, remaining 1 draw and 8 defeats after being beaten by Wolfsburg (4-0) and then drawn against FC Koln (2-2).
Luckily, Union Berlin also had problems with their home form, which was only won 6 times, the remaining 1 draw and 6 defeats. In fact, they have never won in the last three games against Bayer Leverkusen (2-3), Wolfsburg (2-2), and Bayern Munich (0-2). With conditions that are equally bad, the possibility of tomorrow’s clash will end in a draw, moreover it will be the first in Forsterei after the last in 2004.
Our Prediction: Under 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.90
