Both teams to score at Mainz vs Wolfsburg 2/3 for Tuesday’s Bundesliga battle

Competition: Bundesliga

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 2/3 @ 888sport

In a showdown between two sides who are desperately seeking maximum points in midweek, relegation scrappers Mainz will host Wolfsburg on Tuesday night.

Starting with the hosts, while Mainz might have managed to pick up a shock point over the weekend, they do still find themselves at the heart of a real relegation scrap. In their 16 Bundesliga matchups so far this season, they have recorded just a single win, four draws and 11 defeats, scoring 15 and conceding 34 in return. Opening up the midweek fixtures with just a points tally of seven and with just their goal difference stopping them from dropping into the relegation zone, it should be noted that Mainz also hold the second-worst defensive record in the division. As for their recent run of results, despite picking up a shock 1-1 draw against Borussia Dortmund last time out, Tuesday’s hosts have failed to win any of their last eight straight contests across all formats. However, it is worth highlighting that Mainz have seen three of their last four matchups finish with both teams finding the net.

As for the visitors, while Wolfsburg might find themselves still in the European race, they are enduring a recent blip. In their 16 Bundesliga matchups so far this season, they have recorded six wins, eight draws and two defeats, scoring 24 and conceding 19 in return. Managing to collect themselves a points tally of 26 and opening the midweek fixtures sat sixth in the table, the Greens are currently just three points adrift of breaking into the Champions League spots. However, as for their recent run of results, including back-to-back 2-2 stalemates against Union Berlin and RB Leipzig, Wolfsburg have collected just a pair of points from their last three Bundesliga matchups. With three of their last four away day fixtures ending with both teams finding the net, we’re backing a similar outcome on Tuesday night.
