Mainz vs Freiburg Soccer Betting Tips
As is often the case in recent years, Mainz has no other option than to find itself mixed up in the struggle for maintenance in the Bundesliga. At the break, the Nullfünfer is only 14th in the ranking with a total of 18 points, 3 more than the first relegation. The partners of former Lyonnais Matetat also had a rather complicated month of December with 3 defeats suffered against Augsburg (2-1), Dortmund (0-4) and Bayer Leverkusen (0-1). In the meantime, they still beat a drifting Werder Bremen (0-5).
Facing them is one of the good surprises of the first part of the season across the Rhine. Indeed, Friborg finds itself, with 26 units, in 8th place and can even nurture some European ambitions for the end of the season. However, Christian Streich’s men have reduced the pace recently with a single victory in their last 6 games. It was against Wolfsburg (1-0) on December 7. Since then, they have been defeated by Hertha Berlin (10) and Bayern Munich (1-3) before drawing against Schalke 04 (2-2).
The staff for Mainz vs Freiburg
Mainz remains an orphan in the middle of Latza. On top of that, last season’s top scorer Mateta (14 goals) still hasn’t been able to play a single minute this season due to his injury. He is in the infirmary with the replacements Mwene, Bell, Seydel and Dong-Won.
For Friborg, many frames are also unavailable. They are goalkeeper Schwolow, defender Lienhardt and very good forward Waldschmidt. In addition, the least used Kübler, Gondolf, Tempelmann and Ravet are also on the floor. Against Schalke, forward Petersen scored his 7th goal of the season. No real advantage on paper
Friborg did not detail to win in the first leg (3-0).
