Prediction

  • After sacking head coach Bo Svensson, Mainz still languish in an automatic relegation spot approaching the winter break.
  • Dortmund have not featured in a goalless draw in 142 games, since October 2019.
  • Dortmund should have the quality to win this on home soil, but they are still ruing that final day nightmare last season.

  • 0-1 Mainz

  • @zardonic All most all of your predictions were wrong, just saying :D

  • @MOCKBA But this may happen with a low probability. BVB is not in good condition recently and Mainz is a defense-one-tool team.

  • 3-1 dortmund
