Mainz-Cologne is a Bundesliga match of the 11th day: odds, predictions, TV and streaming
MAINZ – COLONIA | Friday 8.30pm
Mainz and Cologne, who open the eleventh round of the Bundesliga, are separated in the standings by just one point: sixteen for the guests, fifteen for the hosts, who are dreaming of what could be not only a turnaround in the standings but also the chance to grab a European spot. Yes, the German league standings are really short, as well as strange, since in front of everyone there is Union Berlin followed by a lagging Bayern Munich, which however seems to be on the upswing. It’s a different matter at the moment to see how the Week 11 fixture might turn out.
The hosts come from two wins in a row: Werder Bremen away and Lubeck, also away, in the German Cup. Before that came a draw against Leipzig, so it was an important result, the kind that can give the season an important development. After three defeats in a row, Cologne also bounced back last weekend, beating Augsburg. It was a special moment for the team coached by Baumgart, who managed to pull themselves out of a negative moment. A turning point. Even if the feelings, for Cologne, are not positive.
The Prediction
In a match that could give at least three goals in total, a Mainz victory seems possible, which could thus, at least for one night, fly into the European zone. Cologne beaten and sent home without points
