After 3 consecutive losses in the Bundesliga, Mainz have lost the first spot, and will meet Nurnberg at home this Friday.
Mainz 05 are currently taking the 2nd spot with 27 points in 13 games and a home record of W4 D0 L3. The team started the season with 7 consecutive wins after a loss against Hamburger.
The team seemed to have recovered after bouncing back with a win against Leverkusen, but then recorded 3 consecutive losses in the Bundesliga until last weeks round when they won 3:2 against Borussia Monchengladbach.
Nurnberg are in the middle of the table taking the 10th spot with 18 points in 13 games and an away record of W1 D3 L3. The only away victory the team recorded was against Werder with 3:2

Mainz and Nurnberg share a great deal of history when it comes to direct games. Since 2005, the away side has never won the game. Out of the 7 home games that Mainz has played against Nurnberg, for the past 10 years, they have won 6 and lost 1 back in 2004.
In those 7 games, Nurnberg has been able to score only 4 times, never more than a goal. In the past 2 visits here they haven’t been able to score at all.
Although Mainz have ruined their perfect record, I still believe that the team is in a good condition and will most likely be loyal to the statistics and win this one.
