FC Schalke vs Mainz Prediction and Betting Tips | November 9, 2022

FC Schalke 04 v 1. FSV Mainz 05 - Bundesliga
Schalke and Mainz will lock horns the German Bundesliga on Wednesday.

FC Schalke and Mainz will go head-to-head at the Veltins-Arena in round 14 of the German Bundesliga on Wednesday (November 9).

The hosts head into the midweek matchup on a seven-game losing streak and will look to end this dry spell.

Schalke failed to stop the rot last weekend, as they fell to a 2-1 at Werder Bremen. They have now lost their last seven games across competitions, conceding 21 goals and scoring just five since September.

Consequently, Schalke remain rooted to the bottom of the Bundesliga table with six points from 13 games.

Meanwhile, Mainz were condemned to a second loss on the trot, as they were beaten 3-0 by Wolfsburg last time out. That followed a 6-2 thrashing against Bayern Munich on October 29, which snapped their three-game winning streak

With 18 points from 13 games, Mainz are tenth in the standings, level on points with ninth-placed Hoffenheim.
