Freiburg vs Mainz 05 Prediction and Betting Tips | November 30th 2025

Freiburg will host Mainz 05 at the Deutsche Bank Park on Sunday in another round of the 2025-26 Bundesliga campaign. The home side have had mixed results in the league this season and now sit 11th in the table with just 13 points.

Freiburg entered the international break in excellent form and appeared set to continue that momentum after racing into a two-goal lead against league leaders Bayern Munich last weekend, but they ultimately collapsed and suffered a heavy 6-2 defeat. They then faced Viktoria Plzen on Thursday in the UEFA Europa League's league phase, where they played out a goalless draw at the Stadion Mesta Plzne.

Mainz 05 saw their struggles persist last weekend as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Hoffenheim, requiring a 76th-minute equalizer from Danny da Costa to rescue a point. They then traveled to Romania for Conference League action on Thursday, where they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Universitatea Craiova, with Kacper Potulski’s late leveller overturned after a VAR review.

The visitors, however, also endured a slow start to last season, winning just two of their first nine league matches before ultimately finishing sixth. They will therefore know there is still ample time to turn their campaign around.

Breisgau-Brasilianer are on a run of back-to-back winless outings after winning three of their previous four games. They are, however, undefeated in their last six home games and will head into the weekend clash with confidence sky-high.

The 05ers, meanwhile, have lost two of their last three games and have won just one of their last seven. They have lost their last four away games on the bounce and could see that streak extend on Sunday.
