Schalke surrendering to their fate
It needs a miracle for Schalke to survive in the Bundesliga this season. It just hasn’t been their year and everything went wrong for them. With just one win the whole season, worst attack, worst defense, the stats tells it all. It is a season to learn from mistakes for Schalke.
After a glimmer of hope when they drew with Union Berlin, they got two horrible games and got thrashed by Dortmund 4-0 and Stuttgart 5-1.
They are eight points behind their opponents Mainz, and if Schalke wins this match and the deficit is cut to five points, they still need at least 20 points from their remaining ten games, are they capable of carrying that out? The stats claim they can’t.
Mainz has a last chance to fight
Mainz in this match have one goal and that is three points. They have 17 points, one point behind 16th placed Arminia Bielefeld and 15th placed Hertha Berlin. They have to win and wait for those two teams to lose points.
Three of their four wins came in their last six games which are good for their confidence and show that they can fight if they take matters into their own hands.
Coach Bo Svensson has to find a solution for his team’s scoring problems as Mainz have an average of one goal per game in the last five games. Defensively also they need some adjustments as they average almost two goals per game conceded this season.
Key Stats
- Schalke have not scored in 12 matches this season
- Schalke haven’t won at home in eight games
- Mainz haven’t scored in nine matches this season
- Mainz are unbeaten in their last two away matches
Schalke vs Mainz Prediction
In this match, we see Mainz have more probability of winning given the importance of the match to them and the fact that they have more chances of escaping the relegation zone than Schalke.
Also, Mainz are in much better form than Schalke in the last six matches where Mainz has three wins and Schalke has lost four. Their head-to-head is in favor of Schalke with 15 wins in 26 matches and the last match was a 2-2 draw but there is a big difference n their form now.
We predict an away win for Mainz.
