Match preview

RB Leipzig host Mainz in the Bundesliga on 31 January 2026. RB Leipzig sit 3rd on 64 points and Mainz are 10th on 39. RB Leipzig have won 2 of their last 5 (LWLWD), while Mainz have won 2 of 5 (DDWLW). In their last 1 meetings, RB Leipzig won 1, Mainz won 0 and 0 ended level. These are probabilities from past results, not guarantees: football upsets happen every week.

How this is worked out

Each club has an Elo rating that moves after every result (bigger wins move it more, home sides get a small boost). We turn the rating gap into expected goals and use a Poisson model to get win, draw and loss chances. The prediction is locked at kick-off and never edited.

Probabilities, not promises. For analysis and entertainment only. 18+.
