Union Berlin vs Mainz Prediction & Betting Tips | 19/01/2025 | Football

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:

Union Berlin

Union Berlin

Mainz

Mainz

Union Berlin and Mainz square off against each other at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei in what is expected to be a close Bundesliga game. The capital club aim to put an end to their three-game losing run in the national championship and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Mainz. Defender Tom Rothe has yet to serve his ban, while goalkeeper Yannic Stein remains on the sidelines with injury.

Die Nullfunfer, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 1-0 loss to Bayer Leverkusen, but beating Union Berlin in the German capital is easier said than done. As previously mentioned, a close contest is on the horizon and we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. The good news for the visiting team is that midfielder Nadiem Amiri is back from suspension, but forward Jonathan Burkardt should miss out with injury.

Highlighted Player (Dominik Kohr):

Dominik Kohr

Dominik Kohr is a product of Bayer Leverkusen’s youth school. The German midfielder was born in Tier on 31 January, 1994 and he made eight appearances for the Bundesliga side at senior level. He spent the 2014/2015 season on loan at Augsburg, playing 34 games for the club in the German elite division and his loan was made permanent at the end of the season (18 June, 2015).

He scored his first goal for the club from the penalty spot in a 1-0 win over Wolfsburg. Kohr has four caps for Germany U20 and he played for the U18 and the U19 teams in the past as well. Dominik Kohr is a central midfielder, but he is capable of playing as a defensive midfielder and a centre back as well.

He has a contract with Augsburg which expires on 30 June, 2019. Kohr played 26 games for Augsburg in the 2015/2016 Bundesliga campaign.

Highlighted Team (Union Berlin):

Union Berlin

Union Berlin are a German football club originally founded back in 1906. Die Eisernen play home games at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei which can hold up to 22,012 spectators. Union Berlin’s home kit is red, with the team wearing white shirts and white shorts on the travels.

Union Berlin finished the 1923 domestic campaign as runners-up, with the team suffering a 3-0 loss to Hamburger SV in the title game. Speaking of the club’s biggest success in the German Cup, die Eisernen made it to the final of the competition in the 2000/2001 season. Schalke, though, proved to be a big catch for Union Berlin in the decider, with Jorg Bohme scoring a brace for die Knappen (2-0).

Union Berlin will face their local rivals Hertha in the 2019/2020 Bundesliga season as they secured promotion to the German top flight, but Hansa Rostock are considered the club’s main rivals.
