Köln vs 1 Fsv Mainz 05 Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga
by Daniel Ngulu | in Bundesliga Prediction
The German Bundesliga restarts this weekend and among the matches lined up, FC Koln will be playing at home to Mainz. At the time of stoppage, Koln were placed 10th in the standings with 32 points and Mainz 15th with 26 points after 25 matches. Koln started the season badly but by the time of stoppage, they had turned the corner and seemed like a real contender for a place in Europe. They wrapped up their matches with a loss to Borussia Monchengladbach, which would be quite understandable given their opponents strength. They had earlier registered three straight wins and with a good scoring run. Koln had scored in each of their last 11 matches, key to making them one of the most improved sides in 2020. With five wins in their last eight matches, they will hope to pick up the momentum as Mainz visits. Their form at home had also taken a turn for the better, with five wins in six matches. Their only home loss in the six matches came against Bayern Munich, which was somewhat expected and they had kept four clean sheets in the six matches. Only five points separate Koln and sixth placed Schalke, who occupy the final European slot and they will consider this a motivation to go for three points. Right before the stoppage, Koln’s matches saw a plenty of goals, with nine of their last 10 registering over 2.5 goals. At home, they were in fine form, scoring three or more in three of the last four. The fine home run engineered remarkable wins over Schalke, Freiburg and Wolfsburg.
Mainz will not have much to look back to though. At the time of stoppage, they were struggling and going to this game they still have the threat of relegation alive to their season. It will be worse for Mainz, who will be without goalkeeper Robin Zentner through injury and striker Jean Mateta who is suspended. In their last four matches, Mainz suffered one loss but also managed just one win. With five losses in the last nine matches, they will be take off as the underdogs here. They didn’t have a very inspiring defensive run and will hope their return from the break holds better tidings. They had three clean sheets only in their last 13 matches by the time the league was stopped. Their away run was also very patchy in the 12 matches they played. They lost eight of the 12, some of them heavily and facing a Koln side with an impressive home run is not the game they’d have wished for at the moment.

Our Köln vs 1 Fsv Mainz 05 Prediction
Koln have a great run at home; in their last five matches, they won four. Of the four wins, they scored first and held off to win. On the other hand, Mainz have a poor run and interestingly, they have lost eight of the matches they conceded first. Added to their away run this season, it is clear Koln will be favorites here. We expect that Koln, with European ambitions ignited, will be well motivated for this game. On the other hand, Mainz will be under pressure to not just improve their away form, but also try and rise as far away from the drop zone as possible. Coming from the forced break though, we do not expect a lot of goals here given the limited time for training. We will go with a 1-0 win for home side Koln.
