Mainz 05 and Werder Bremen meet at a Mewa Arena that has rarely been short of goals, with two of the Bundesliga‘s in-form marksmen in Phillip Tietz and Niclas Fullkrug going head to head, kick-off at 2.30pm (UK time) on Saturday.
Anthony Eadson’s Mainz 05 vs Werder Bremen predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson is anticipating goals and fancies the in-form Niclas Fullkrug to be among them.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Niclas Fullkrug to score anytime | 23/10 (Paddy Power) | Fullkrug has been Werder’s talisman this season, leading their scoring with six goals in six games and carrying their attack almost single-handedly. Mainz have conceded 10 times already and have not looked especially secure at the back, which should give the veteran striker chances to add to his tally. Werder find the net in most games, and their main man is firing. At 23/10 with Paddy Power, Fullkrug anytime looks a sound way in. He has started every game and is the focal point of almost everything Werder do going forward. |
| Over 12.5 total corners | 7/2 (BoyleSports) | Both sides have been involved in open, high-tempo games this season, with Mainz in particular drawn into end-to-end contests at home. Werder will have to push for goals as the visitors, and that tends to mean attacks breaking down and corners piling up at both ends of the pitch. The 12.5 line is on the ambitious side but well within reach in a game that should be stretched from early on. BoyleSports’ 7/2 is comfortably the standout price for the over here. |

How Mainz 05 go into the game
Mainz sit fifth and have been involved in some wild games, scoring 14 but conceding 10, with a 4-3 loss to Leverkusen and a 5-0 win at Hamburg among them. Phillip Tietz leads the way with five goals.
They go into this off a 1-0 win at Schalke and will back themselves at home, even if keeping it tight has not been their strong suit this season.
How Werder Bremen go into the game
Werder are eighth and have drawn three of their six games, with a 2-2 at home to Paderborn last time out. Niclas Fullkrug has been the standout, scoring six of their 12 goals.
They carry a threat through their talisman but have been leaky at the other end, with 12 conceded, which points to another open game here.
