Union Berlin, Recent FormManager Urs Fischer will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 8 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games.
They have not lost at home for an impressive 23 games in a row.
Sheraldo Becker will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Union Berlin.
Mainz 05, Recent FormSupremo Bo Svensson will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 16 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 8 goals they've managed to net. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Results have been poor for Mainz recently, with 4 losses and only 1 win from their last 6 league games their current form is not going to help them move up the table.
Ludovic Ajorque has scored 3 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Union Berlin.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Mainz 05, losing 2-1 to Union Berlin.
Die Nullfünfer have some indifferent league form when it comes to away matches against Union; they have shipped at least 1 goal in their last 5 games away to them. In their last 3 away league games against Die Eisernen, Mainz have conceded a total of 9 goals and that's an average of 3 per game.
Mainz have lost the last 3 times they've have visited Union in the league and have failed to win any of their last 5 encounters at The Stadion An der Alten Försterei.
There is only really one injury concern for the Union manager Urs Fischer ahead of this clash, with András Schäfer (Foot) missing out, which gives Fischer a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Mainz manager Bo Svensson ahead of this clash, with Jonathan Burkardt (Knee) missing out, which gives Svensson a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
