Arminia vs Mainz Prediction
Arminia will be hoping to take revenge for their defeat in the DFB Pokal over midweek but their form in recent fixtures suggests they might struggle to get a favorable result here.
We predict Mainz will be able to record a win here to make it three on the spin.
Prediction: Arminia 1-2 Mainz
