1. FSV Mainz 05 vs Hertha BSC Prediction 16 September 2022

The program of the seventh round of the Bundesliga starts with an interesting confrontation between Mainz and Hertha.

At the start of the league season, Mainz are not a model of stability, as evidenced by their recent meetings with Union (0:0), Augsburg (2:1), Bayer (0:3), Borussia Monchengladbach (1:0) and Hoffenheim (1:4). Despite this, the current sixth place with 10 points and a 6:9 goal statistics completely suits the Carnival Club which do not have serious ambitions.

At the same time, Hertha dealt with Augsburg (2:0) away, shared points with Eintracht (1:1) and Bayer (2:2), and also turned out to be weaker than Borussia Monchengladbach (0:1) and Borussia Dortmund (0:1). In total, the Old Lady earned five points with a goal difference of 6:8 - this is a fifteenth line of the standings.

Both duels between these teams in the previous campaign were in favor of Mainz, and even now they look more solid. We predict at least not losing the hosts in a game with not the highest performance.
