FSV Mainz 05 to Win

Reason for tip

Mainz look the value side away at Heidenheim. The hosts struggle when expected to lead and have the worst defensive record in the division. Mainz are strong on the road, scoring regularly and winning three of their last four away games. With momentum and greater attacking threat, the visitors should come out on top.

FSV Mainz 05 2-0

Reason for tip

Mainz 2-0 is the correct-score pick. Heidenheim concede heavily at home and have suffered multiple defeats by that margin this season. Recent head-to-heads often stay under 2.5 goals, suggesting a controlled rather than chaotic contest. Mainz’s sharper attack and Heidenheim’s defensive frailties point to a professional, two-goal away success.

Mainz to expose fragile Heidenheim

Heidenheim are unreliable favourites when Mainz visit Voith-Arena on Saturday. Frank Schmidt’s side have failed to win five of their last seven Bundesliga games as favourites.

Mainz are seven places and 11 points above Heidenheim in the table, but both teams have lost more games than they’ve won this season. The hosts are 17th with six wins and 19 defeats, while Mainz are tenth with nine wins and 14 losses.

Mainz are in good form away from home, having won three of their last four Bundesliga games on the road and losing just one of their last seven.

They have scored in 16 of their last 18 league games and are in form going forward, having found the net in four consecutive matches. They showed they can score against anyone last month, putting three goals past Bayern Munich in a 4-3 defeat.

No team has conceded more goals in the Bundesliga this season than Heidenheim, with 70 goals against in 33 games. The hosts have been leaking goals at home too, conceding 35 times in 16 games – an average of over two goals per game.

Mainz to win away 2-0 looks a decent correct-score bet. Unders has been a winning bet in four of the last five Bundesliga games between these sides, and Heidenheim have suffered four 2-0 losses in the league this season.
