The game starts with the encounter with Bayer 04 Leverkusen on Tuesday evening (8.30 p.m., live on SKY and 05ER.fm), in which Mainz, fifth in the table, meets the second-placed team. The Werkself started the new year successfully with a 3-2 win in Dortmund – just like the 05ER, who beat VfL Bochum 2-0 last Saturday. Here is an overview of all the data and facts about the game.
In total, Mainz have met Leverkusen 36 times in the Bundesliga so far. The Werkself prevailed 19 times and the two teams drew five times. The 05ER left the pitch as winners in twelve cases.
After his brace in the home game against Bochum, Jonny Burkardt is Mainz 05’s sole record goalscorer with 35 Bundesliga goals. Previously, he was in first place together with Karim Onisiwo, who scored 33 goals for Rheinhessen.
-Looking at the past few weeks, the two teams with the strongest form in the last five Bundesliga matchdays will face each other on Tuesday. While Leverkusen were able to win all of their matches during this period, Mainz were victorious four times and only had to admit defeat once.
