LiontipsMainz vs Borussia Monchengladbach. Predictions and Betting Tips for Bundesliga
Command Analysis
Mainz became one of the main sensations of the new Bundesliga season - Bo Svensson's team is only one step away from the Champions League zone. After a few great matches at the start of the season Carnival Club got into a slump in mid-September - three consecutive defeats to Bayer (0:1), Union (1:2) and Borussia (1:3) gave a reason to worry.
In the previous season Mainz barely managed to recover after a disastrous drop of form and avoided a relegation by some miracle, but seems like this time everything is not so serious. Carnival Club managed to break a string of defeats in the ninth round, beating Augsburg (4:1), and in the most recent match Mainz recorded a victory over Arminia and rose to the 5th spot in the standings.
Borussia, unlike their today opponent, completely failed the start of the season. Adi Hutter's team started with a 1:1 draw against Bayern, but then results went downhill. The Colts are approaching the 11th round of Bundesliga at the 10th spot in the standings with 14 points in their asset. But team is only three points adrift from the Champions League.
Borussia played their best match of the current season few weeks ago in the German Cup. The Colts trashed Bayern at home (5:0). In the most recent Bundesliga match Borussia recorded a 2:1 victory over Bochum, it is their third victory in five Bundesliga matches. If Monchengladbach team will continue to go on like that they will be able to fight for a spot in Top-4.

Tip and bets
Borussia managed to improve their performance in recent matches, but so far Colts are only at the middle of the standings, but we don't think that they will slow down. Mainz are in an excellent form at the start of the season and managed to break into the European competitions zone, but Carnival Club is inconsistent and they made many defensive mistakes - they conceded goals in each of six most recent matches. Borussia should be able to get advantage out of it.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (0) on Borussia
Borussia are playing successfully at home matches against Mainz in recent years - in five matches they recorded four victories and one draw. We think that this series will be continued - The Colts want to get into the fight for the European competitions zone, but Mainz are not an easy opponent, so we shouldn't expect a blowout.
Our second bet is on Borussia to win by one goal
