On Saturday evening, Mainz will look to record a potentially vital win in the Bundesliga survival battle when they welcome Borussia Dortmund to MEWA Arena.
Mainz extended their unbeaten run against Heidenheim
Last time out, the O5ers made it seven Bundesliga games unbeaten with a 1-1 draw at Heidenheim. However, it was Mainz’s third straight draw in the German top flight.
The home team is in 16th place in the Bundesliga table, occupying the relegation play-off spot. However, they are only a point adrift of the safety of Union Berlin and 15th place. They are also five points clear of the automatic relegation zone.
Mainz has a decent recent home record in the Bundesliga. They are unbeaten in seven matches on home soil. A 1-1 draw against Koln in their last home game in the league ended a run of three straight home wins.
Bo Henriksen’s team has been relatively prolific on home soil in the German top flight, having scored at least two goals in three of their last four matches.
Dortmund have experienced a fantastic week
On Tuesday night, Dortmund recorded a 1-0 win at PSG in the Champions League semi-final second leg to win 2-0 on aggregate to book their place in the final. The win over the French team was their third straight victory in all competitions.
Dortmund is in fifth place in the table, and, courtesy of their performance in this season’s Champions League, they have already qualified for Europe’s elite competition for next season.
Their recent record in the German top flight has been highly inconsistent. They have won just two of their last five Bundesliga games. However, on the flip side, BVB have won six of their last nine matches.
Dortmund has a strong recent record in the German top flight, winning four of their last five away games in the Bundesliga. BVB have also scored at least two goals in all four of their recent league wins on their travels.
What am I backing?
This is a massive game for the home team, but it could be difficult with the visitors full of confidence. I can see this game being high-scoring, so the bet I am backing is over 2.5 goals scored.
