Mainz vs Union Berlin prediction

It’s easily to look at Union Berlin and think that their players have an eye on the off-season when considering recent results in the Bundesliga. They haven’t tasted victory since March 15, a run of six matches without winning, only picking up two points across that period and conceding a whopping 15 goals. Having said that, Union have found the net themselves in seven of their most recent eight league matches.

Mainz should be afforded plenty of chances against this Union Berlin side, but don’t be surprised to see the visitors push bodies forward in big numbers and carve out a number of opportunities themselves. With that in mind, back a high scoring battle between these two teams that sees both score and over 2.5 goals in total.

Mainz vs Union Berlin tip: Over 2.5 goals and both teams to score
