Bayer Leverkusen vs Mainz: Predictions and Betting Tips

Bayer Leverkusen

It has been good start to the season for Leverkusen, a team that in recent seasons has lacked the consistency to be at the top of the table. They are currently in fourth position.

Leverkusen are currently the third highest scoring team in the Bundesliga, with 15 goals in five games, an average of three goals per game. They have conceded seven goals, which indicates that there tend to be chances for both them and their opponents in their matches.

Leverkusen have won six of their last seven meetings with Mainz.

Mainz

Mainz have made a surprisingly positive start to the season and find themselves in fifth place on ten points, level with Leverkusen. Whether they will be able to maintain this consistency or whether they will slide down the table and be fighting to avoid relegation at the end of the season is another question.

Mainz have taken fifth place needing only six goals in five games, and conceding only two goals. This statistic may indicate that they are a very good team defensively and very efficient up front, as they have not needed big scores to take all three points.

Key Stats:

• Four wins and one defeat for Leverkusen in their last five games
• Leverkusen have scored 16 goals in their last five games
• Four consecutive matches conceding at least one goal for Leverkusen
• Four consecutive matches without losing for Mainz, comprising two wins and two draws
• Four consecutive matches without conceding goals for Mainz

Bayer Leverkusen vs Main Predictions

Despite Mainz’s good form, we think that Leverkusen, who in their last few matches have dominated their opponents, especially in attack, are the stronger team. Playing this match at home, Leverkusen’s chances are further boosted, and they are the clear favourites to win this match.
