Bochum vs Mainz – Preview, and Prediction
Bochum vs Mainz – The only two Bundesliga teams without a victory this year are Bochum and Mainz. Consequently, both teams have won very few points thus far and are in the relegation zone.
The two prior meetings between this club and Mainz were wins. This season, things are different, though. You can wager on the following since our first prediction is that the game will end in a draw: The wager has an odd of 3.66.
Now let’s go on to our second prediction for this game: under 2.5 goals. The prediction’s odds will be 2.06. This tip’s primary motivation is the dearth of goals Mainz have scored on the road this year. The situation in Bochum is comparable.
