In the following round, the final score was a defeat by (2‑0), against VfL Bochum 1848. Mainz won 6, tied 3 and lost 1 of the last 10 home matches for all competitions. The team has conceded goals to its opponent in 8 of the last 10 matches, so their defense needs to improve, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have managed to score in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times but managed to turn the score around in 3.
Mainz comes unmotivated for this match after an away setback, by 2-0, against Bochum. One of the main qualities of the home team is the way they manage to create danger through long-range shots, as well as the task performed by the players in regaining possession of the ball. The home team usually acts in a 5-2-3 tactical system, favoring a slower playing style. In this drawing, the three players responsible for causing panic in the opposing defense must be Paul Nebel, Jae-sung Lee and Jonathan Burkardt. The Mainz coach must have all players fit for this game.
Greuther Fürth Analysis
Currently in 15th position, the visiting team has won 1 point so far. In the 1st round, they lost in an away match against VfB Stuttgart by (5‑1). In the following round, the final score was a draw by (1‑1) in a home match against DSC Arminia Bielefeld. In the last 10 away matches Greuther Fürth has won 3, tied 2 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored regularly, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.
Greuther Furth comes for this match after a 1-1 draw at home, against Arminia Bielefeld. The home team usually plays in a 4-4-2, favoring offensive transitions and channeling their attack through the side aisles. The two most advanced men responsible for causing panic in the opposing defense should be Dickson Abiama and Branimir Hrgota. It is possible that Julian Green, Nunoo Sarpei, Paul Seguin and Havard Nielsen play in the most central part of the field. One of the home team’s flaws is the approach to defensive set pieces, which most of the time allows their opponent to create a lot of danger. Coach Stefan Leitl will not be able to count on Robin Kehr, Jessic Ngankam, Elias Kratzer and Gideon Jung as they are, at this moment, handed over to the team’s doctors.
