Elversberg vs Mainz 05 Prediction

Elversberg Form

Elversberg managed one win in the last three matches, which was a 4-3 victory against Augsburg. They went on to lose 4-0 against RB Leipzig, before getting dumped in a 0-2 defeat against Darmstadt. Elversberg managed to win two of their past six home matches in the Bundesliga. In the remaining four, they drew zero and lost one, as they scored eight and conceded seven goals.

Elversberg have already squandered enough points to put themselves under pressure, if they are to challenge for the title seriously in the Bundesliga this season.

Mainz 05 Form

Mainz 05 have been a bit bleak in their last three matches, although it started with a 0-1 win against Schalke 04. Unable to follow that up, they went down 2-3 against Werder Bremen, before suffering another loss in a 2-0 match against Bochum. Mainz 05 picked up five wins from a possible six on their recent travels in the Bundesliga, while scoring 15 and conceding five goals. They also drew once but remained without defeat.

Ambitions are high for Mainz 05, and winning the title is still possible, but they need to raise their level to achieve the highest prize.

This particular encounter between Elversberg and Mainz 05 looks a little trickier for the favourites, than prices with the bookmakers suggest. All things considered, though, we still believe, the visitors have enough about them to pull off a win this coming Friday.

Elversberg have taken six points from their last four games against teams from the top half of the Bundesliga table. They won two of these matches with a scoreline of eight goals to 11. Elversberg only drew once so far this season after seven games played, in stead recording three wins and three defeats in the Bundesliga.
