Mainz under pressure: Difficult fight against Bremen on November 1st!
The Bundesliga duel between Mainz 05 and Werder Bremen is just around the corner and promises a lot of excitement. On November 1st, 2025 at 3:30 p.m. 1. FSV Mainz 05 will play against SV Werder Bremen. Loud Betting friends Mainz goes into the encounter as favorites, but the facts paint a different picture. Mainz are currently struggling with problems and urgently need to score points to consolidate their place in the bottom of the table.
With only 4 points from their previous games and a dismal record of four defeats in a row, Mainz are under pressure. What is particularly striking is that Mainz have not yet been able to score a single goal at home this season. In comparison, Bremen is showing an improving form, has not lost in the last three games and has found stability under coach Horst Steffen. However, Bremen allow the most shots on goal in the league, which makes for a very exciting game.
The last encounters
The xG (expected goals) value for the upcoming game is 3.08, which underlines the offensive strengths of both teams, despite their defensive weaknesses. Because both teams concede an average of 2.0 goals per game. Mainz have conceded more than one goal in all their games so far and are therefore vulnerable to Bremen attacks. Roman Schmid, who created 20 goalscoring chances for Bremen, could play a crucial role.
Form and statistics
In the current season, Mainz performed better than expected defensively, but there is a significant discrepancy between the expected points (11.53) and the actual yield. Mainz also have more ball possession with a field tilt of 57.7%, but were unable to convert this advantage into goals. In return, Bremen has a high average of 17.5 shots on goal allowed per game, the highest in the league, which could open up opportunities for Mainz.
The betting odds reflect the situation: Mainz is listed as the favorite at 2.00, while a draw is rated at 3.95 and a win for Bremen at 3.55. On paper, Werder Bremen have the opportunity to win this game, especially if they know how to exploit Mainz's weaknesses. Will Mainz be able to break their home curse? That will become clear next Sunday.
