FC Bayern München will face Mainz after wrapping up the title last weekend

Mainz and Bayern Munich will square off in the Bundesliga this Saturday and both teams have nothing to play for in the final few games of the league.

Bayern Munich sealed their 10th title in a row with a victory over Borussia Dortmund in the previous game and are no longer active in the Champions League and the DFB Pokal.

Mainz, on the other hand, are 10th in the league table and are too far behind the European places. They are well clear of the bottom three, so there are certainly no fears of relegation looming.

We could hence be in for an entertaining game as both sides like playing on the front foot. Mainz have done well this season under Bo Svensson, and we expect them to give Bayern a tough time in a packed Mewa Arena.


Mainz vs Bayern Munich Head-to-head

Mainz are in a pretty awful run of form, having picked up just two points from their last five games.

Their head-to-head record against Bayern Munich is also not great as they have beaten the Bavarians just five times in 33 matches.

Bayern have won the fixture 25 times, and only three times has the game ended all square.

Mainz did beat Bayern 2-1 in their last home game and ended a run of five years without a win against them. They will hope for a similar result this time too.
