Rhine-Main Derby: Eintracht Frankfurt celebrates an important win against Mainz 05!
On November 10, 2025, there was an exciting football encounter on the program that electrified Bundesliga fans: the Rhine-Main derby between Eintracht Frankfurt and Mainz 05. In the sold-out stadium, in front of 59,000 enthusiastic spectators, Eintracht celebrated a narrow but deserved 1-0 victory.
Eintracht Frankfurt, with 17 points from nine games, moved to seventh place in the table after this derby. It was the 35th meeting between the two teams that Eintracht won. The Japanese player Ritsu Doan scored the decisive goal in the 81st minute, providing another highlight in the Bundesliga season so far. Eintracht have one of the strongest offenses in the league, with a total of 23 goals scored, and are back on track after their success in the derby.
The situation of the people of Mainz
In contrast to Frankfurt, the situation at Mainz 05 looks less rosy. The club remains in the penultimate relegation spot with just five points from nine games. There hasn't been much going on at Mainz for five games, and four of these games were lost. Despite good performances in the Europa Conference League, the team is unable to gain a foothold in the Bundesliga. The defeat in the derby was all the more bitter, which further aggravated the team's situation.
Looking back at the last duels
In the last 48 meetings between these two teams, Frankfurt have won a total of 17 times, while Mainz have won 12 times. 19 games ended in a draw and the goal difference is 70:59 in favor of Eintracht. It is also noteworthy that Mainz was able to win its last home game against Frankfurt 3-1 in December 2024. That's why the latest victory was particularly important for Eintracht - also as a small revenge.
Transfer details
The derby was not shown on free TV, but was broadcast exclusively on DAZN.
