Newly-promoted Schalke will hope to put a check to Mainz’s impressive away form when the sides clash on matchday six of the Bundesliga on Saturday. This match at the Veltins Arena between the 13th-placed ‘Royal Blues’ and the 8th-placed ‘05ers’ could keep the hosts interested, with our match prediction backing Schalke on a double chance.
With five points (W1, D2, L2), Schalke are only a point above the relegation zone ahead of this round. Mainz have seven points (W2, D1, L2) and are only two points outside the top five.
Schalke were close to upsetting the calculations of Freiburg, but a late goal saw them lose 2-1. It was their first defeat in the last four league games, though (W1, D2), as the Royal Blues look to make an instant bounce back.
This venue has seen the stubborn Schalke eke out two 0-0 draws in the Bundesliga, with one of those coming against Bayern Munich.
Mainz lost 4-3 at home against Bayer Leverkusen last matchday for a second defeat in their last three league games (W1). Their matches have been entertaining, though, as Mainz’s Bundesliga games averaged 4.6 goals per game ahead of this round.
Mainz enjoy their travels and have gone undefeated in eight Bundesliga matches (W6, D2), including four consecutive victories.
