In the second round of the DFB Pokal, Bayern Munich will travel to the Mewa Arena to face Mainz this Wednesday. One of the all-Bundesliga clashes, the Bavarians are eyeing a second win in a row when they take on Die Nullfünfer. We have a prediction for this match and the stats below.
Mainz will go into this game seeking to cause a major upset as the German giants come to town. That will, however, call for a big performance, for the team with just a win in the last four matches.
They are coming from a 1-1 draw with Borussia Monchengladbach but their biggest concern will be in their home form. Mainz haven't won at home in five straight matches.
Bayern Munich have suffered a few shocks in recent weeks but they remain a formidable side. They are still top of the Bundesliga, unbeaten. Now they will hope not to suffer in a cup game as they did in the Champions League.
Right after their 4-1 defeat to Barcelona, Bayern turned up with a 5-0 win over Bochum in the Bundesliga. Now they are targeting progression, which should be an easy task, given their record against Mainz.
In the last five meetings between these two sides, Bayern won four.

Our 1 Fsv Mainz 05 vs Bayern Munich Prediction
From the onset, this looks like a lopsided affair. A match that Bayern Munich have dominated, it won’t even bother them that they will be playing away from home. Their win over Bochum on the weekend was a statement after their 4-1 defeat to Barcelona.
Bayern will want to score another big win here. However, they have to watch out on their defence as well. Our prediction for Mainz v Bayern Munich is for Bayern Munich to win and over both teams to score.
