1. FSV MAINZ 05 TO WIN
PRE-GAME CONFIDENCE: HIGH
On the completed games we hold, the case for 1. FSV Mainz 05 rests on recent form, scoring balance, home and away records. FC Schalke 04 17% wins in the last six, 1. FSV Mainz 05 50%. None of this rules FC Schalke 04 out, and our free source for this sport publishes no availability news to factor in.

OPEN
What separates these two on our numbers is recent form, scoring balance, home and away records, and it points to Manchester City. Nottingham Forest 17% wins in the last six, Manchester City 83%. Nottingham Forest are not out of it, and nothing here accounts for availability news, which our free source for this sport does not publish.

OPEN
Real Madrid lead this one on recent form, scoring balance, home and away records — the only ground where the data gives either side daylight. FC Valencia 17% wins in the last six, Real Madrid 83%. FC Valencia can still take this, and squad availability is a gap we cannot close from a free source in this sport.
