Union Berlin Preview
Union Berlin is surprising the whole world in this campaign and is fighting on a par with Bayern Munich, who is the current leader and is only one point behind in the standings. Union Berlin is in second place with 11 wins, three ties, and four losses for a total of 36 points.
They come into this match with three consecutive victories, which should be motivation enough in their attempt to climb to the top. They are the second-best home team of the season, and this match will be played at home, where they are undefeated with six wins and two draws. Their last performance on their home field was a 3-1 win over Hoffenheim.
Probable lineup (3-5-2): Frederik Ronnow; Danilho Doekhi, Robin Knoche, Diogo Leite; Josip Juranovic, Paul Seguin, Rani Khedira, Janik Haberer, Aissa Laidouni; Sheraldo Becker, Jordan Siebatcheu.
Mainz 05 Preview
Mainz returned to winning ways in the Bundesliga in their previous match with a 5-2 win over Bochum. Prior to that, they had gone six games without a win, with their last victory coming on October 21: a 5-0 win over Cologne.
With the three points obtained recently, they are in position 11 with 23 points after six wins, five draws, and seven defeats in the 18 dates. Something that may draw attention is that as an away team, they have not been as effective recently, as they have not won in their last three performances in this condition.
Probable lineup (3-4-1-2): Finn Gilbert Dahmen; Andreas Hanche-Olsen, Stefan Bella, Edimilson Fernandes; Anthony Caci, Leandro Barreiro, Dominik Kohr, Silvan Widmer; Karim Onisiwo, Jae-Sung Lee; Ludovic Ajorque.
JefeBet Prediction
Union Berlin have lost only one of their last five meetings with Mainz, recording three wins in that period.
Although their last meeting ended in a 0-0 draw in August 2022, Union are currently far superior to Mainz and are expected to take all three points on their home pitch.
Prediction: Victory for Union Berlin by a score of 1-0.
