Mainz will conclude their 2021-22 Bundesliga campaign with a home game against Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday.
The hosts have secured two wins in their last two league outings and will look to sign off on a winning note. They overcame Hertha Berlin 2-1 in their previous league outing, with Stefan Bell scoring the winning goal in the 81st minute.
Eintracht Frankfurt, meanwhile, are winless in their last eight league outings but will be content with making the UEFA Europa League final. They played out a 1-1 draw against Borussia Monchengladbach last time around. Frankfurt will likely rest their key players, keeping in mind the Europa League final on Wednesday.

Mainz vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction
Mainz have a solid home record this term, keeping six clean sheets in their last nine games. They have been defeated just twice at Saturday's venue and are strong favourites to beat Frankfurt.
The game, meanwhile, provides a good opportunity for the visitors to warm up ahead of the UEFA Europa League final. They have lost their last two league games but should put up a fight. The game will likely end in a high-scoring draw.
Prediction: Mainz 2-2 Eintracht Frankfurt.
