Football Results

Even though they recently have almost identical results, the look at the table reveals that Bayer is still much more successful and this team broke to the second place on the table after winning away in the last round, but then they lost in the first round of the second part. Mainz has done the same and after a defeat, they celebrated in the last round, but are still very close to the relegation zone. It should also be said that both teams won placement in the quarterfinals of the Cup, and in the first part of the season there were surprising 3-1 for Mainz.

Bayer Leverkusen

Bayer had a long positive series in which they did not suffer any defeats for a few months, but at the opening of the second part of the championship they lost to Bayern in Leverkusen at the opening of the second part of the championship. The series was interrupted, but it was obvious that it did not bother the “Pharmacists” too much and did not throw them out of the rhythm, as they are aware that the team from Munich is some other dimension. In the last round, Bayer has mastered Hoffenheim away and they celebrated with 4-1.

Coach Herrlich decided to change the formation a little bit, so they played with four players in the last line, while Bellarabi and Kohr ended up on the bench as well as Havertz. Classic striker Alario was on the field instead and it was a good move because he scored two goals. One goal was scored by Baumgartlinger, who was also a refreshment in the team, but the best was again the young midfielder Bailey. They do not have any injured players and so we expect the same team on the field.

Probable lineups Bayer Leverkusen: Leno – L.Bender, Tah, S.Bender, Wendell – Baumgartlinger, Aranguiz – Brandt, Volland, Bailey – Alario

Mainz

Mainz has also started the second part of the championship with a defeat and they lost to Hannover with 3-2 after they had the lead two times. In the last round they defeated Stuttgart in their field and again it was 3-2, and this time they were reaching the advantage of their opponents this time. There are a lot of goals in Mainz’s matches recently, although they have to improve their performance away as soon as possible, where they have not achieved any victories.

Their striker Muto was in good mood at the start of the second part of the season so he scored once in Hannover and twice in the last round against Stuttgart. Coach Schwarz changed a lot of things as he was obviously dissatisfied after Hannover, so he made some changes in each team line, which was worth it. It should be noted that they brought two players during the break and this is the midfielder N.da Jong, who was already proved to be a hit, and was the starter in both duels, and also striker Ujah, who is currently a reserve.

Probable lineups Mainz 05: Zentner – Hack, Gbamin, Diallo – Brosinski, Holtmann – N.de Jong – Maxim, Latza – Muto, Quaison

Verdict:

Bayer has in the last round returned to the victories and they played again in their own style, offensively and with a lot of goals, so in this match we give them the role of absolute favourite against Mainz which is playing very changeable but also plays very poorly away.
