THE PREDICTION

After being heavily beaten by Stuttgart in their first match of the campaign, Greuther Furth picked up their first Bundesliga point last weekend with a 1-1 draw against Arminia Bielefeld. They now head back on the road with MEWA ARENA their destination to face Mainz. The hosts failed to capitalise on their 1-0 triumph over RB Leipzig on the opening weekend of the season, losing 2-0 to Bochum last weekend. It is clear however, that Mainz are going to prove very difficult opposition on their ground and head coach Bo Svensson will be aware that if they can make MEWA ARENA a fortress this season, then their Bundesliga prospects will be positive. In regards to this particular match, it is likely to prove another difficult afternoon for Greuther Furth on the road and the higher all-round quality of the Mainz squad should see the home side pick up the three points.
