The partial records show Schalke losing 3-0 at Augsburg on 30 August, drawing 0-0 against Bayern on 5 September, winning 3-1 at Union Berlin on 11 September, then drawing 0-0 against Elversberg on 20 September. Mainz drew 0-0 against Paderborn, won 5-0 at Hamburg on 6 September, lost 3-1 against Frankfurt on 12 September, then won 4-3 at Mönchengladbach on 19 September.
These results do not constitute a complete run of the latest matches, and no consistent comparison of chances or xG is available. In the standings observed on 10 October, Mainz were 6th with 8 points from 5 matches and Schalke 12th with 5 points from 4 matches, which limits a direct comparison.
Schalke had returned to the Bundesliga as champions of the 2. Bundesliga in 2025/26.
The page dedicated to the 2018/19 season mentions seven home matches without defeat for Schalke against Mainz, including five wins and two draws, as well as other historical results. This precedent is old: the squads, coaches, and contexts have changed.
No Bundesliga meeting between the two clubs in 2025/26 was established in the sources consulted.
The match is scheduled for matchday 6, on 17 October 2026 at the VELTINS-Arena in Gelsenkirchen, Schalke’s home ground. Schalke scenario: home advantage, intense initial pressure, and rapid transitions could allow them to shut down the penalty area after taking the lead.
Mainz scenario: their 5-0 win at Hamburg and 4-3 win at Mönchengladbach document recent attacking efficiency; the team could exploit the space left by a high defensive line or Schalke press. Mainz travel after hosting Leverkusen on 10 October, while Schalke must travel to Freiburg on 11 October; rotation or a physical impact is possible, but unconfirmed.
