FSV Mainz 05 have been much more efficient away from home, winning all three away games, scoring 10 and conceding only 3. SV Elversberg have struggled recently, winning just one of their last six, and their defensive depth is in doubt: the injury list includes Günther, Gyamerah and Pinckert, though their availability is still unconfirmed. The home side still carries some attacking threat, and both teams have goals in them, so a high-scoring game is the more likely outcome.
