Prediction: 2-1
Borussia Dortmund
Mainz and Borussia Dortmund face each other at Mewa Arena in what is expected to be an interesting Bundesliga game. Die Nullfunfer have drawn each of their last three league matches, but a win over Borussia Dortmund could see them escape the relegation zone. Both Brajan Gruda and Nadiem Amiri are back from suspension, but defender Philipp Mwene has yet to serve his ban.
The Yellow-Blacks, on the other hand, head into the match following the Champions League clash with PSG. As tired legs could prove to be a big problem for Edin Terzic’s troops, we are tempted to place our bets on the relegation-threatened hosts. It has to be noted, though, that Mainz have not defeated Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga since June 2020. Both Julien Duranville and Ramy Bensebaini are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side, while Karim Adeyemi is pushing for a start.
