St. Pauli vs Mainz Prediction & Betting Tips (5 October)

Mainz have collected just two points from a possible 24 on the road of late, whilst they have failed to score more than a single goal in 14 consecutive top-flight trips. St. Pauli, on the other hand, clearly know what they are doing on their own patch, winning six of their last seven league fixtures and outscoring their opponents by 19 goals to three across these wins.

Mainz have featured seven times at the top table of the Bundesliga so far this season, with every single one of these clashes delivering three goals or fewer. It has been a similar story as far as St. Pauli are concerned, as six of their seven top-flight fixtures have served up under 3.5 goals, so more of the same is expected when these two teams square off against each other.

Over the course of their last 19 Bundesliga matches, Mainz have kept an impressive tally of 14 clean sheets, so finding a way through against Mainz can prove difficult. Given that just three of the most recent 13 top-flight fixtures involving St. Pauli have served up goals at both ends of the pitch, it is hard to see much of a deviation from the script.
