LiontipsMainz - Borussia Dortmund. Forecast (odds 2.10) and bets on the Bundesliga match
Command Analysis
Current form
Mainz has 10 points in nine rounds played. The result is decent, but we do not see a serious breakthrough in the team performance. Bo Henriksen charges play individual matches at a high level, but they lack stability over time. In the last two rounds, the "carnival players" drew with Borussia Mönchengladbach (1:1) and Freiburg (0:0). It is noticeable that the team is having a hard time playing first, it is no coincidence that Mainz has not yet won a single victory at home - two draws and three defeats.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hansche-Olson and Jentz will be out due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Mainz have not won in the first half in their last four matches
- Mainz have failed to score more than one goal in four of their last five Bundesliga matches
- On their home field, the "carnival players" have failed to run in five matches in a row in the championship
Estimated line-up : Centner - Cor, Leitsch, Bell - Kasi, Sano, Amiri, Mwene - Nebel, Lee - Zib.
Current form
After a series of failures, Borussia played two excellent matches. First, in the championship, they managed to beat the difficult Leipzig (2:1). Then, in the Champions League, they recorded a victory over Sturm (1:0). Dortmund played both matches on their home field, where they have not had a single misfire in the same Bundesliga - five wins in five matches played. On the road, the situation is still deplorable - only one point scored in four games within the national championship. The series has clearly dragged on, the upcoming match is very well suited to finally win away for the first time, because Mainz is not convincing at home, in addition, Borussia beat the "carnival players" away in four of the five previous face-to-face confrontations.
Disqualifications and injuries
Borussia still have a lot of losses in their squad. Süle, Ryerson, Reyna, Adeyemi and Duranville are all out due to injuries. Couto, Kobel and Wetjen are in doubt. Bensebaini is serving a suspension.
Interesting trends for betting
- Borussia have not drawn in their last seven Bundesliga matches
- The bet on both teams to score has played in Dortmund previous seven league matches
Probable line-up : Meyer – Gross, Jan, Anton, Schlotterbeck – Nmecha, Sabitzer – Bayer, Brandt, Gittens – Guirassy.

8.70Tip and bets
We believe that today is the right time for Borussia to get their first away win in the Bundesliga. The team has won two matches in a row, the players showed character, especially in the battle with Leipzig, and are clearly on a decent emotional high right now. Plus, Mainz plays poorly on its home field, and has never won. Dortmund won four of the previous five away head-to-head matches, and we expect them to win this time too.
Our prediction is a Borussia win with odds of 2.10
Bet on total
In the last four matches involving Borussia in all tournaments, no more than three goals were scored. It is clear that today Dortmund will bet on the result and will try to play reliably in defense.
The second bet is total under 3.5 goals with odds of 1.62
Bet on the first half
Borussia have drawn in the first half in four games in a row. We don't think that the opponents will force the action on the field today, and it is quite possible that a draw will be recorded at the end of the first 45 minutes.
Forecast - draw in the first half with odds of 2.55
