Mainz vs Koln Prediction and Betting Tips | October 21, 2022

In Round 11 of the Bundesliga on Friday (October 21), Mainz will welcome Koln to the Mewa Arena.

The hosts returned to winning ways in the league after a month, securing a 2-0 win at Werder Bremen last week. Mainz have four wins this season, but none of them have come at home. They continued their winning form in DFB-Pokal, beating VfB Lubeck 3-0 in midweek.

Koln, meanwhile, also returned to winning ways with a hard-fought 3-2 win over Augsburg, with Steffen Tigges netting a brace. They were eliminated in the DFB-Pokal first round so Koln will be well-rested for this game at Mainz.
