Competition: Bundesliga
Market: Mainz draw no bet
Odds: 7/10 @ 1xBet
Two camps who will turn their attention back to Bundesliga duties on Sunday evening, Mainz will welcome Freiburg to the MEWA Arena.
Starting with the hosts, although Mainz might have found themselves at the heart of an extended rut prior to Germany’s festive break, Urs Fischer’s side have come roaring back in some style. Getting their iconic Europa Conference League quarter-final adventure underway with an impressive 2-0 victory against French outfit Strasbourg, the Carnival Club are enjoying a major purple patch. Marking their return from March’s international break with a sensational 2-1 win away at Champions League chasers Hoffenheim, Mainz will be looking to make another statement here. In fact, heading into March’s fortnight interval with another 2-1 win against Eintracht Frankfurt, Sunday’s hosts have won each of their previous five consecutive appearances across all competitions by an aggregate score of 10-2. Finding a real clinical edge in the final third, Fischer’s high-flying squad have also not suffered a single Bundesliga defeat in front of their own supporters since the start of December.
As for the visitors, getting their respective European quarter-final adventure underway with a dominant display on home soil, Freiburg have certainly claimed a welcomed boost on their side of March’s international break. Breezing their way to a thumping 3-0 Europa League victory against Spanish outfit Celta Vigo, Julian Schuster’s side have won three of their previous four appearances across all competitions. However, despite being last seen on their travels securing a hard-fought 2-1 win against relegation scrappers St. Pauli, Freiburg have shown some extended issues on the road. Along with losing each of their other three matchups away from the Europa-Park Stadion, Sunday’s guests have registered just a single away victory within 90 minutes so far this calendar year. It should also be highlighted, Schuster’s camp have claimed just a sole win from their last five trips to Mainz across all fronts – a run that stems back to January 2020.
