Bayer Leverkusen vs Mainz Prediction and Match Preview

Leverkusen is unbeatable this season. It is a rare occasion that they have recorded another outcome than a victory so far in this campaign. A 1-2 win over Heidenheim cemented their position at the top of the standings and will hope to secure it more on Friday when they face Mainz at home.

• Leverkusen’s 1-2 victory against Heidenheim was their 18^th win this season and they are now on a streak of three victories too.
• Mainz won 1-0 against Augsburg in their latest match to end a winless streak of 11 games.
• Leverkusen bagged a clean sheet in six of their late eight league matches and has scored goals at an impressive rate in that stretch too.

Leverkusen’s exceptional performance helped them to maintain their spot at the top of one of the biggest football league in the world. They are now having an eight-point lead against Bayern Munich sitting at second. Apart from Leverkusen’s victorious run, what shines the most is their firepower, which has been netting goals at a stunning rate despite of their star striker Boniface being injured for the past many games.

Moving on, this match will see plenty of goals as Leverkusen faces an unimpressive Mainz side, who also has a weak defensive line. In that case, we can place money on Leverkusen to score goals over 2.5 here.

Recent Meetings

• Leverkusen won the reverse fixture at Mainz, scoring three unanswered goals, and it was their third win in the past three clashes.
• We can see three clean sheet victories in the past five head-to-head between Leverkusen and Mainz.
• Leverkusen was unbeaten in five of the past six clashes against Mainz at this venue and won four in the stretch.

Leverkusen vs Mainz Prediction

Mainz, who has won just once in the past league road trips this season, makes it an obvious decision that Leverkusen will win the match. The stats on paper tighten the three-point possibility for the home side and we expect them to seal a comfortable one too.

Also, the past four league home matches of Leverkusen saw them bagging a clean sheet. They have netted 10 goals in that stretch too. Thus, our main betting pick will be Leverkusen to win and both teams to score no combined tip.

In-form Leverkusen offense is likely to score goals over 2.5 here, as they delivered the same in most of their home matches of late. Since we expect a one-sided match with the home team scoring over 2.5 goals, the Ht/Ft tip looks ideal in favor of the Leverkusen side.
