Hamburger SV vs Mainz 05 Predictions, Betting Tips, Match Previews

Mainz’s visit looks to be the last chance for Hamburger SV if they want to keep their ever-present status come May. Hamburg had quite a challenging schedule at the start of the year and it caused a run of five losses and two draws in seven league outings in the process. Hamburg are down the bottom of the Bundsliga standings and are now in alarming risk of relegation, sitting second from bottom and seven points shy of the safety.

Mainz have ended a dismal run of their own by claiming four points from last two league rounds against the likes of Hertha BSC and Wolfsburg. Boss Sandro Schwarz seems to have introduced some defensive solidity into the team – they have now conceded just a single goal in those two mentioned fixtures. Mainz have a huge chance to continue that form against an out-of-sorts Hamburg and put some light between themselves and the relegation zone.
