A Sports Betting Preview by Niko

Mainz v Augsburg
Football; Germany: Bundesliga
MEWA Arena – Mainz
Saturday, 07th February 2026 - kickoff 15:30 CET

Mainz

Mainz are enjoying a solid run of form, losing just once in their last seven Bundesliga matches. Last weekend’s 1-2 away comeback win at RB Leipzig, with Silas leading the charge, extended their streak of confidence both home and away.

Goals have been plentiful in their matches lately, with over 2.5 goals in each of Mainz’s last five Bundesliga games.

However, they’ll face a blow in attack, as top scorer Benedict Hollerbach is out for the season with a torn Achilles. Losing him will test Mainz’s creativity and finishing in the final third.

Augsburg

Augsburg are quietly gaining momentum themselves. Unbeaten in their last four matches, including last weekend’s 2-1 home win over St.Pauli, the Bavarians have shown they can compete at this level. Michael Gregoritsch has been in fine form, scoring the decisive goals in their back-to-back victories.

Augsburg’s recent shock win over Bayern Munich on the road highlights their potential, though inconsistency is still a concern — prior to that, Augsburg had lost four straight away games.

Offensively, Augsburg are hitting form, scoring at least two goals in their last three Bundesliga matches, with over 2.5 goals landing in all those games.

The Betting Verdict

Both teams arrive with confidence from recent victories, making this a lively contest at the lower end of the table.

Mainz holds a slight psychological edge, having beaten Augsburg four times in their last six Bundesliga encounters, including a 1-4 away win earlier this season.

Expect an open, attacking game with goals at both ends, and Mainz to have just enough to edge out Augsburg in front of their home crowd.
