1. FSV Mainz 05 take on the visitors Hoffenheim at “Opel Arena” in the round five of the German Bundesliga. The game will be played in Mainz on Wednesday, September 20th.
Last Saturday 1. FSV Mainz 05 were smashed 0:4 by Bayern Munich on the road. After four matchdays played in the German elite division, “Karnevalsverein” settles on the 15th place in the table with three points earned and 3-7 goal difference. In 2017 1. FSV Mainz 05 participated in 12 encounters in face of their supporters recording four triumphs, three draws and five defeats in them. In other words the team hardly manages to take points even at the home pitch.

It seems like Hoffenheim cannot used to the Eurocups battles. On Thursday “Die Kraichgauer” were broken 1:2 by Braga in the UEFA Europa League while on Sunday they failed to beat Hertha BSC in front of their fans, having earned 1:1 draw. After four rounds behind, Julian Nagelsmann’s side occupies the fifth position in the Bundesliga standings with eight points gained and 6-3 goal difference, having not lost in this season’s elite division yet.
Hoffenheim have not been defeated by 1. FSV Mainz 05 in last three head-to-heads, having taken 4:4 draw alongside with 3:2 and 4:0 victories. The rivals’ recent clashes ended with numerous scored goals and I believe that this time the opponents will not combine so many goals while the visiting team will extend its unbeaten run within the Bundesliga. Despite their failures in the Eurocups, “Die Kraichgauer” demonstrate consistent play in the German elite division.
Prediction for the match: Hoffenheim to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
