Mainz vs Union Berlin Prediction & Betting Tips (7 February)

Like what it experienced two seasons ago, Mainz experienced a very difficult first part of the season during which it only achieved one small success during the first 19 days. Of course, this does not allow it to do well in this championship where it only occupies 17th place in the ranking with 6 points behind the first non-relegation which is none other than its opponent of the day. A little better since the arrival on the bench of Jan Siewert, FSV was able to share the points with Dortmund 1-1 and Wolfsburg 1-1 but it has just conceded 2 new losses against Eintracht Frankfurt 1-0 and Werder Bremen 0-1. For its part, Union Berlin also experienced very complicated moments during the first part of the season. Qualified for the first Champions League in its history, it was logically mishandled by finishing last in its group behind Real Madrid, Naples and Braga.

But it is above all in the championship that the capital club disappointed by experiencing a terrible series of 9 defeats in a row during the autumn, which ended up costing the place of the historic coach Urs Fischer, replaced by Nenad Bjelica. Victorious in their last match of the year played against Cologne 2-0, the Iron Men started 2024 with a draw in Freiburg last weekend 0-0 before falling to Bayern 1-0. Then, they won in front of the red lantern, Darmstadt 1-0 before losing more logically on Sunday against Leipzig 2-0.

The French striker Ajorque (1 goal) is no longer a starter in this team. The FSV is also in the hard front with only 14 goals scored this year. This winter, the club tried to obtain reinforcement by attracting striker Ngankam (Frankfurt) and midfielder Amiri (Bayer Leverkusen) on loan.

For the Union, the important full-back Juranovic is still on the flank. In this team, we could find the former ASM Kevin Volland (2 goals) as well as the winter recruits which are the defender Vogt (Hoffenheim), the winger Vertessen (PSV) and the French striker Bedia (Servette) . On the other hand, the Ivorian striker Fofana (Chelsea, return from loan), the aging Bonucci (Fenerbahce), the striker who became a substitute Becker (Real Sociedad) and the most important Behrens (4 goals) all wanted to leave the proget.
