Two struggling sides will meet in what could be Stuttgart's first home victory of the season. The first duel between them resulted in Stuttgart's 1-4 persuasive away victory. The hosts have lost their last two games, but will now have the perfect chance to redeem themselves. The guests' key player, Jean-Philippe Mateta will be loaned for the rest of the season and this is seriously going to hurt Mainz's goal-scoring ability, as the young striker found the net seven times this season. The second-worst club in the top-tier surprised Leipzig last Saturday in a close 3-2 triumph, their second out of 18 games they played.

The hosts will be missing Al Ghaddioui, Sosa, and Forster. Their most recent home duel against Monchengladbach ended 2-2. Matarazzo has done a wonderful job since he joined as head coach, promoting Stuttgart to the Bundesliga with them currently having a wonderful season. The Reds are tenth-placed, but are capable of beating any team in the league. Their attack is led by youngsters Wamangituka, Gonzalez, and Kalajdzic, who have scored 21 goals so far. Stuttgart's main issue is performing at home and if they are able to sort it out, they can aim for the top 7 finish.

The guests will be dealing with the absences of Kunde, Brosinski, Fernandes, Kohr, and Martins. This makes their midfield vulnerable and will give them headaches against Stuttgart's counter-attacking playstyle. Mainz has the league's second-worst defense, conceding 38 goals this season. They have just appointed the fourth manager in the span of one year, and his fresh results could stop soon, even in the upcoming game. The underdogs are without a victory in their last four matches away from home.

I anticipate Stuttgart's dominant victory. Good luck!

双方本赛季首次交手，斯图加特4-1客场取胜。主队已经输掉了最近两场比赛，但是现在将有一个完美的机会来找回他们自己。客队的关键球员，让-菲利普·马塔将被租离队，这将严重影响美因茨的进球能力，因为这位年轻的前锋本赛季7次进球。美因茨在上周六爆冷3-2击败了莱比锡，这是他们18场比赛中的第二场胜利。

斯图加特将失去哈马迪·加迪维, 索萨和福斯特。他们最近的一场主场对阵门兴格拉德巴赫的比赛以2:2结束。马塔拉佐在担任主教练后表现出色，带领斯图加特进入了德甲联赛，现在他们度过了一个美好的赛季。球队现在排名第十，但是有能力击败联赛中的任何一支球队。他们的进攻由年轻球员瓦曼吉图卡、冈萨雷斯和卡拉季奇领衔，目前他们已经进了21球。斯图加特的主要问题是在主场的表现，如果他们能够解决这个问题，他们就可以瞄准前7名。

美因茨昆德，布罗辛斯基，费尔南德斯，科尔和马丁斯缺席。这使得他们的中场变得很脆弱，而且在面对斯图加特的反击风格时也会让他们头疼。美因茨拥有联赛第二糟糕的防守，本赛季丢了38个球。他们刚刚任命了这一年来的第四任主教练，换帅效应可能很快就会停止，即使是在即将到来的比赛中。在最近的四场客场比赛中，美因茨都没有赢过一场。

我预料到斯图加特会取得压倒性的胜利。好运！
