Bundesliga: 1 Fsv Mainz 05 – Leipzig prediction

1. Leipzig are unbeaten in their last seven league games.
2. The reverse fixture saw Leipzig beat Mainz 8-0 at home.
3. Only Werder Bremen have scored less home goals in the Bundesliga than Mainz.
4. Mainz have lost seven home league games, Leipzig have won seven on their travels.

RB Leipzig need to get a win because they are down to fourth in the Bundesliga, while their opponents are just a place above the relegation play-off position. Leipzig are now seven points behind the league leaders due to many draws and losing ground.

Mainz saw them lose 8-0 at Leipzig and it could have been a lot worse. They trailed 7-9 with 40 minutes to go but only conceded one more as Timo Werner completed his hat-trick. Mainz are only a couple of points above the relegation play-off position but nine clear of the automatic relegation places.

Leipzig can keep their title hopes alive with an away win.
