Borussia Dortmund vs Mainz Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The visitors have scored six goals in their last two meetings against BVB.

Borussia Dortmund are all set to host Mainz in match week 27 of the Bundesliga 2024-25 season. The hosts have come up with below-average performances, due to which they are in the 11th spot on the points table. The visitors are in the third place after their decent show of performances this season.

Borussia Dortmund will be at home, and it will be the right moment for them to secure a win after their players have returned from the international break. They have won 10 games in 26 Bundesliga matches as of now. They still have a chance to get themselves a spot for a European competition for the next season.

Mainz 05 have secured 13 wins in the same number of league matches as BVB, and they are looking sharp at the moment. For them, Dortmund might not be a big problem currently, but they surely should not underestimate the Bundesliga giants here. They will be looking to maintain their Champions League spot for the coming season, as winning the title can be a hard job for them at the moment.

Players to Watch

Serhou Guirassy (Borussia Dortmund)

Hailing from Guinea, Serhou Guirassy is the top goal scorer for Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga 2024-25 season. He has scored five goals in the last five league games for Dortmund and is looking good this season. While being on the attacking front, he can cause problems for the opponent’s defence.

Jonathan Burkardt (Mainz)

He will be a big addition to Mainz. Jonathan Burkardt is now fully fit and ready to be in action once again. In 22 league matches, he has a total of 17 goal involvements.

The 24-year-old also scored for Mainz the last time around when they faced Dortmund. Making his comeback, Burkardt will surely be looking to score a goal or two here.
