Mainz and Union Berlin will face off in the upcoming Bundesliga matchday 33. Both teams have already secured their place in the league for next season, so they are playing without any competition pressure. Mainz, under former Union coach Urs Fischer, has improved significantly: they have picked up seven points in their last five matches and reached the quarterfinals of the UEFA Conference League. Union, on the other hand, have failed to win in five straight matches, having lost three in a row before their draw with Köln.
The statistics favor the "both teams to score" bet. Mainz has scored in four of its last five matches, but has also conceded in four of those. Union, on the other hand, has consistently scored in its last four games, but is conceding an average of 2.6 goals per match. Their first-leg encounter ended in a high-scoring 2-2 draw. At the same time, Mainz plays well at home, although they have won only four of their 15 home matches.
