Augsburg and Mainz square off in round four of the German Bundesliga on Friday

Augsburg and Mainz get round four of the German Bundesliga underway when they square off at WWK Arena on Friday. Both sides head into the weekend off the back of contrasting results, with Bo Henriksen’s men losing at home against Werder Bremen.

Augsburg picked up their first win of the 2024-25 Bundesliga campaign last weekend when they edged out St. Pauli 3-1 at the WWK Arena.

Before that, Jess Thorup’s side were on a seven-game winless run in the league, losing six and claiming one draw since beating Union Berlin 2-0 in mid-April.

Augsburg will head into the weekend looking to secure consecutive Bundesliga wins for the first time since March and put together some fine early-season form.

Mainz, meanwhile, failed to get up and running in the new league campaign as they were beaten 2-1 by Werder Bremen at Mewa Arena last Sunday.

This followed a 1-0 friendly loss against 2. Bundesliga side Darmstadt on September 4 which saw their four-game unbeaten run across all competitions come to an end.

Mainz have failed to win their opening three league games, picking up two points from a possible nine to sit 15th in the table, two points and four places behind Friday’s hosts.


Augsburg vs Mainz Head-To-Head and Key Numbers

  • With 14 wins from the last 31 meetings between the sides, Augsburg hold a slightly superior record in the history of this fixture.
