Freiburg have won five of their six league games against sides below them in the table
Mainz have lost four of their last seven matches
The hosts have won four of their five home games this term
Tricky trip for Mainz
Mainz were hammered 4-0 at home to Bayern Munich in the cup in midweek and another defeat could be on the cards when they head to Freiburg on Sunday. The visitors have lost four of their last seven matches and their next game takes them to a side in form.
Freiburg have won three of their last four games, only falling to joint-leaders RB Leipzig in that time. They’ve put together a fine record at home this season, claiming four wins from five in all competitions, while the fifth-placed side have been adept at seeing off weaker opponents.
While Freiburg have lost in visits to Bayern and Leipzig, they’ve won five of their other six Bundesliga games this season. Fresh from a cup victory over Hamburg, Freiburg are a good price to extend their good form and continue their push for a spot in the top four.
