Mainz vs B. Monchengladbach prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2024-10-24 18:30.
[p]Mainz lost 2-0 at home against RB Leipzig last time out and considering that was their third consecutive home defeat, coach Bo Henrikssen might be sick of the sight of his own stadium! With just a single point picked up at Mewa Arena, this campaign has started in stark contrast to the end of last season when they went eight games unbeaten at home – a run of form that was probably responsible for keeping them in the top-flight. [/p]
[p]After their last round loss, Mainz have now alternated between wins and losses over their last five games. February 2024 was the last time 12th-placed Mainz (W2, D2, L3) lost twice in a row in the Bundesliga and October 2020 was the last time they tasted defeat at home across two consecutive rounds, although the second of those losses was also their last H2H defeat. However, their seven-game unbeaten streak against Borussia Mönchengladbach (W3, D4) is actually their longest without defeat against a current Bundesliga club.[/p]
[p]Gladbach grabbed a first comeback victory of the season against Heidenheim, winning 3-2 at home after conceding a first-half opener for the fifth game this season (W1, L4). Boss Gerardo Seoane, who has not felt the love recently from booing and whistling fans, will have been relieved, as this might have saved his job after an underwhelming average of just one point-per-game in his tenure prior to that win (W9, D13, L18).[/p]
[p]Usually weak on the road with only three Bundesliga victories over the last two seasons, the 11th-placed outfit (W3, L4) have already secured half of their total away wins compared to last campaign (W1, L2), albeit it arrived against rock-bottom Bochum. Despite losing their last two road trips, Gladbach will likely still pose a threat having failed to score in only two of their last nine away league games (W2, D3, L4).[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Nadiem Amiri has two league goals for Mainz this season and has scored more goals (5) against Gladbach than any other side. Back in the squad last week after injury, Franck Honorat scored and assisted in Gladbach’s only away win this season and has never lost for the club when scoring (W5, D1).[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Just two of 36 total H2Hs finished goalless, but both of those games were held at this stadium.[/p]
