Mainz put in a brave performance in Saturday's match at Munich's Allianz Arena, but failed to hold on to a narrow lead after the change of sides and eventually lost 1:2 to the reigning German champions. Mainz have been particularly successful at home, where they have only failed to get points in one of their eight top-league matches (4-3-1). The German team also showed its quality in the second to last match against Wolfsburg, which it clearly outplayed on the pitch. Mainz managed to create several chances and put their opponents under constant pressure. Moreover, Wolfsburg failed to send a single shot on the opponent's goal during the whole match.
In the inserted round, Hertha BSC arrive in the carnival city, having not won six consecutive league matches here since February 2015 and all three defeats from that list have come by a goal. Last time out, they beat Bielefeld, and under coach Tayfun Korkut have taken four points from two games among the elite, but still have to look behind them as they have only a two-point lead on the survival. This can be reduced after this round, because the "Old Lady" from the field of the best defending home team 1. Bundesliga will leave empty-handed.
That's why I believe Mainz will win this game, as they have the home advantage.
My prediction: Mainz @ 1.90 (bet365)
