Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
Leipzig
Expect a thrilling atmosphere at Mewa Arena when Mainz and Leipzig lock horns in the Bundesliga round 3. Die Nullfunfer are after their first win of the season, but they will have a big fish to fry against the Red Bulls. Paul Nebel serves the second of his two-game ban, while both Benedict Hollerbach and Daniel Gleiber are major doubts and the duo will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The visitors, on the other hand, continue life without Benjamin Sesko, Xavi Simons, and Lois Openda and it remains to be seen if new signings Conrad Harder, Romulo, and Johan Bakayoko are capable of adapting quickly to the new surroundings. Leipzig are not considered good travellers and with Mainz being tough to beat at home, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team ahead of Saturday’s clash.
