FC Koln vs Mainz Betting Tips

FC Koln vs Mainz Prediction 1: Draw

This weekend, Cologne twice overcame behind to defeat Augsburg, winning 3-2 in the process. This is their second victory in three games. Throughout the first ten games of the current Bundesliga season, Cologne has only lost twice, and the tenacious Die Geißböcke can learn something from their trip to Mainz on Friday. The hosts have yet to record a victory at home this season, and they may continue to try past Friday in their quest for their first triumph at the MEWA ARENA. We advise backing Cologne in the double chance market in light of Mainz's dismal home record.

FC Koln vs Mainz Prediction 2: Under 2.5 total goals
