Mainz-Borussia Monchengladbach is a match valid for the eighth day of the Bundesliga and is played on Friday at 8:30pm: live TV, likely lineups, prediction.
Mainz and Borussia Monchengadbach are divided by only one point in the standings: the guests have 9, the hosts 8. And they obviously have a chance to put the arrow that would mean overtaking in the standings and an extra week and a few days of preparation for the next match without any jolts or problems.
There is a really incredible fact about Mainz: of the eight points scored so far, only one, the first one against Union Berlin in the first match of this Bundesliga, was done at home. It is not really clear what can happen because, since then, only defeats have come in four outings in front of their own fans and with only one goal scored, obviously useless for the economy of the match. An immediate reaction is obviously expected, already from tonight’s match against a ‘Gladbach that instead has a completely different roster.
Only three points away from home: those against Bochum last August 31. That was in the middle of summer and given the time of the last few hours it really seems like a lifetime ago. Then only disappointments, even with teams on paper affordable – see Augsburg – and the feeling of a team that, far from the comfort zone, cannot perform at its best.
Let’s say, then, that Mainz has a really good chance, and also because of that law of large numbers that comes back every now and then, sooner or later a challenge to bite in front of their fans must find it. And all indications are that this could be the moment.

The Prediction
A match that will give at least one goal per team (it has happened three times in the last five games) and at least three goals overall (two out of five in this case), the opportunity for Mainz is too important not to be taken advantage of. Yes, the first home win should come.
