Augsburg vs Mainz 05 Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 20th September 2025

As the early season favourites, Augsburg will look to justify their title credentials this coming Saturday when they take on Mainz 05 for a round 4 match in the Bundesliga.

The current difference in the Bundesliga standings between the two teams clashing at WWK Arena this coming Saturday is two points.

Mainz 05 have only managed to claim one point after a single draw from three matches this season. After three encounters, Augsburg have scraped together three points which hands them number 11 in the Bundesliga table.

Although outsiders this coming Saturday, Augsburg will be highly motivated to keep their current gap in the Bundesliga table to visitors Mainz 05. Simultaneously, the latter will not be short on motivation when trying to close the distance.

Augsburg are relatively average in the art of goal-scoring these days. They scored a steady 11 goals in their previous ten matches, for an average of 1.1 per game. They simultaneously allowed their opponents 21 goals, or an average of 2.1 a game. Furthermore, they fought their way to one clean sheets in this run.

Mainz 05 scored 11 goals, conceded 15 and managed zero clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

Betting on the draw would have earned you a sound profit the last time Augsburg played Mainz 05. The pair finished even in a 0-0 match, where no one managed to get the upper hand.

Augsburg vs Mainz 05 Prediction

Augsburg Form

Augsburg managed one win in the last three matches, which was a 1-3 victory against Freiburg. They went on to lose 2-3 against Bayern Munich, before getting dumped in a 2-1 defeat against St. Pauli. Augsburg just have a single home win to show from their efforts in the past six Bundesliga matches at the WWK Arena. They also drew one and lost four of these six encounters, in which they scored six and conceded 11 goals.

Mainz 05 Form

Mainz 05 have been inconsistent in their last three matches. They claimed a 4-1 win against Rosenborg, before drawing 1-1 with Wolfsburg. This little streak came to an end, when RB Leipzig proved too strong in a 0-1 defeat for Mainz 05. Mainz 05 won twice, while also recording one draw, and three defeats in their last six away matches in the Bundesliga. The scoreline from these matches says 11 goals conceded and nine scored.

Head-to-head encounters tend to bring out the best in both sides, when it comes to goals. We see no reason for this trend to end here, and we expect an entertaining match once again between Augsburg and Mainz 05.
