Bookmaker Ratings prediction one – Wolfsburg win – 2.60
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – Total Goals over 2.5 – 1.99
Match Predict – Wolfsburg win
Wolfsburg’s last seven home fixtures have ended in 4 wins, 2 losses and 1 draw, a team that are very confident playing at home and have been able to beat strong teams like RB Leipzig and RB Salzburg in the Champions League group stage.
While the visitors are a very inconsistent team, even though they are in 9th place, they have lost 8 of their last 10 away fixtures. We see their possible victory as even more difficult.
Total Goals over 2.5
We expect a game with many dangerous chances, mainly because the previous meetings between these two teams saw more than 2.5 goals.
Moreover, over 2.5 goals were scored in the hosts’ last 3 Bundesliga fixtures, while Mainz scored at least one goal in their previous 5 away games.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Wolfsburg vs Mainz 05
Wolfsburg’s last five fixtures have been full of goals, with a total of 21, with 9 goals scored and 12 conceded.
Continuing with the number of goals, this season, a total of 9 of the 15 games played at the Volkswagen arena so far have had less than 2.5 total goals.
The Wolves are a particularly weak side defensively in the last minutes of games, as 14 of the 29 total second half goals they have conceded have come between the 76th and 90th minutes of matches.
All-clear for Schlager ✅
Xaver #Schlager is available against Mainz but Maxence #Lacroix could miss out. ?

On the other hand, Mainz are enjoying a good season. With 39 points, Christian Heidel’s side are in 9th position. It can be said that they are already secured their place in Bundesliga.
To point out, Mainz have collected the same points at this stage as they did the whole last season. The reason for this is a very good defensive game, as they have the fourth-best record in Bundesliga right now, conceding 36 goals in 30 fixtures.
The visitors played out a goalless draw against Stuttgart in the last matchday’s fixture, extending their winless into 4 matches. Mainz’s best winning streak in this campaign have been three matches, between 20 and 30 October.
