Schalke vs. Mainz Tip & Quotes, 05.03.2021 – 20:30
On Friday evening, March 5, 2021 at 8:30 pm, the Bundesliga match between Schalke 04 and Mainz 05 will take place in the Veltins Arena on the 24th match day. The royal blues picked up a pack from VfB Stuttgart and shortly afterwards separated from coach Christian Gross. It was already the fourth coaching release for the S04 this season. On Tuesday night, Dimitri Grammozis was hired as the new coach. The precinct club is the last to lose the league table (9 points) and has the same number of counters behind on the rescuing shore. The Rheinhessen lost their home game against FC Augsburg and missed the jump out of the relegation zone. The Zero Fives rank 17th with 17 counters.

The boys were unsettled in Stuttgart and still had the first shot opportunity to lead by Harit (5th). With continuous playing time, the promoter got a better grip on the S04 and then took the lead with 2:0 through two goals of the outstanding endo (10th, 26th). The Swabians now had everything under control and missed the 3-0 (34th) by battle. The third goal didn’t take long either. Kalajdzic scored 3-0 on a free kick in the same minutes. On the other side, the visitors regained hope by scoring the 1:3 goal of Kolasinac (40th). After the change of sides, the game threatened to tip after Kalajdzic and Mangala immediately missed the 4-1 (46th, 52nd). The climber retreated completely – Serdar missed the goal (67th) and Bentaleb shot a foul five minutes later (72nd). In the final phase the 2-3 remained in the air, but Schöpf and Kempf again failed due to VfB-Keeper Kobel (82nd). Then things got really bitter in the second half against weak Stuttgarters – Klement (88th) and Didavi (92nd) scored the 5-1 final for the VfB.
The Grammozis team has not won since eight Bundesliga games (six bankruptcies) and celebrated the only full victory this season on the 15th day of the season at home against TSG Hoffenheim (4-0). Schalke has lost all of his last four home appearances and is therefore also the weakest home team in the league with the fewest goals in his own stadium (8) and the most goals conceded (26). After 23 match days, it fidgeted 61 times in the S04 net – shooting range of the league. With 16 goals in the season, no other club is more harmless.
Ralf Fährmann, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, Shkodran Mustafi, Mark Uth, Matija Nastasic, Goncalo Paciencia, Salif Sane, Frederik Rönnow, Kilian Ludewig, Nassim Boujellab and Steven Skrzybski are injured on Friday evening.

The team of Bo Svensson and the guests from Augsburg were able to see that a lot is at stake. Both fought against the descent and did not want to risk too much. Accordingly, the match usually took place between the two penalty areas. There were no clear chances. A flat shot of Latza was the highest of the emotions (15th). A blackout by FSV-Schlussmann Zentner then brought the Fuggerstäster completely unexpectedly with 1:0 in the front (25th, Hahn). The Bavarian Swabians then withdrew. Through Latza, the Zero Fives had the next and last opportunity in the first round (39.). At half past two, real chances of scoring were still rarely sown. M05 tried to broaden the game, but finishes were rare, as in the final phase by Latza and Boetius (75th, 79th). On the other hand, Hahn missed the 2-0 (85th) decision with a post hit. A few minutes later Mainz also had Alupech through Onisowo (87th) and seconds later found his champions in FCA-Keeper Gikiewicz (88th). So it stayed close to 1-0 for the FCA.
The Svensson team lost again after three unbeaten league games in a row (7 points). Only one of the last four guest appearances the Rheinhessen have lost and celebrated a surprising 2-1 success in Mönchengladbach during this period. Only Bielefeld and Schalke are even worse away. After the S04 (35 goals conceded in the away), the FSV is the league’s most shaky away defence (24). After 23 match days, 44 goals mean that the third weakest defensive row is placed in the upper house. The 23 season goals are also expandable. Only three clubs met less often.
Edimilson Fernandes and Robin Quaison fail due to injury in Gelsenkirchen.

For Schalke 04 it is the very last endgame and for Mainz 05 the big chance to leave the relegation places with a win after months. This puts enormous pressure on both teams. The Rheinhessen convinced again in the second round and scored diligently. As a result, the feeling of being close to the rescuing shore is restored and things went well even away with only one defeat from the last four games. The royal blues lost their last four home games and sacked the coach for the fourth time this season during the week. The S04 is in the 2nd division with more than one leg and needs the threesome against a direct competitor, otherwise the lights will go out ten days before the end of the season in the Veltins Arena. We predict goals will fall on both sides and the Svensson elf will take the three points home.
