Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there's no obvious winner in this fixture, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Mainz and Freiburg will find the net twice at least between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Urs Fischer or Julian Schuster has served up too many 0-0s of late either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.29 equating to roughly a 77% probability.
