Mainz vs Rosenborg Prediction & Tips
Mainz go into this match with the obligation to attack and win, but the team’s offensive problems are evident. In the first meeting, the Germans lost 1-2 and once again showed one of their old weaknesses: low scoring efficiency. In the last 11 European matches, the club has only scored more than one goal twice, and the absence of Benedikt Hollerbach through injury further complicates the situation in attack.
Rosenborg travel to Germany as favourites after a 2-1 first-leg win and, based on their current form, have every chance of clinching the tie. They are unbeaten in five Conference League games, winning four of them, and only conceded their first goal of the campaign in the first leg. This gives them confidence, but the challenge in the second leg will be greater: maintaining defensive concentration for the full 90 minutes will be crucial.
