The visitors have defeated the Bavarians once this season.
Bayern Munich are all set to host Mainz 05 in matchweek 31 of the Bundesliga 2024-25 season. The Allianz Arena is all set to host the match as the Bavarians will be out for revenge and could even lift the Bundesliga title if results go in their favour on Saturday.
Bayern Munich are at the top of the Bundesliga table. As things stand, the Bavarians will go on to lift the league title this season. They have a good lead in their hands, but the last time around, they lost to Mainz. Even though the Bavarians will be at home, they will be feeling a bit underconfident.
Mainz 05 have shown some decent performances this season. But they have not been good enough, as they are in sixth place at the moment. The visitors are looking to complete a double over Bayern Munich as they have previously defeated them this season. Mainz have not seen many positives in their last few games.
