Augsburg vs Mainz –Augsburg is clinging to the relegation zone by a thread, and with only a handful of games remaining in the season, they are under immense pressure. This, combined with their poor defense, has resulted in the team conceding a lot of goals.
They are currently 14th in a table of 18, with a surplus of only three points over the cut-off. They must be wary of the threat posed by 15th-placed Stuttgart, who are in far better form.
Stuttgart, on the other hand, is up against Borussia Dortmund this week and is expected to lose. This is an opportunity that Augsburg simply cannot pass up.
Meanwhile, Mainz is six points shy of the European qualification cut-off. And, now that they appear to be safe from relegation, they will aim for a top-six finish.
However, they, too, have been conceding goals in abundance recently, and they have been a shambles for the past several months, particularly on the road.
Given these observations, expect a goal-fest between these two teams tomorrow.
Augsburg vs Mainz -Betting Analysis
Augsburg defeated Wolfsburg 3-0 at home on the last day of the season. They had scored two or more goals in five of their previous eight games, and their last home defeat came in August.
Mainz, on the other hand, drew 1-1 on the road against Monchengladbach the previous week, after scoring four goals in the game before that.
Going forward, they have been scoring a lot of goals for a long time, but they have also been allowing a lot of goals on the road.
Taking these observations into account, expect a goal-fest at the WWK Arena tomorrow.
Since August, Augsburg has only lost twice at this venue. They had scored two or more goals in six of their previous ten home games. Since October, Mainz have not won a single match on the road.
In fact, with the exception of two draws, they have a 100 percent losing record over the last five months.
