Prediction: 1-0
Monchengladbach
Mainz and Borussia M’gladbach face each other at OPEL ARENA in what is expected to be one of the most interesting games of Saturday’s program. Mainz did not kick off the new Bundesliga campaign in style as they were beaten by Freiburg 3-0 on the road, but it is well known that die Nullfunfer produce much better showings at home than on the travels.
Mainz are a real force to be reckoned with at home and seeing that Borussia M’gladbach are not as sharp as they were last season, we believe that home win should be considered. Die Fohlen, who played out a goalless draw with Schalke in their opener, continue life without Thorgan Hazard, who will be sorely missed in the OPEL ARENA clash. Anyhow, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home team.
