An out-of-form Dortmund welcomes Mainz to SIGNAL IDUNA PARK for a crucial Bundesliga contest
Borussia Dortmund vs Mainz 05 Betting Tips - BTTS
Without a win in five matches, and just one in their last eight, Dortmund will be desperate for a return to winning form against relegation-threatened Mainz.
While short of form and in need of the points, BVB will be keen to wipe out the memory of last season's dramatic final day 2:2 draw against Mainz, a result that cost them a first league title in over a decade.
In the Bundesliga, Edin Terzic´s men were again held to a draw this past weekend after a 1-1 share of the spoils against Augsburg. BVB have won only one of their last seven league games and now find themselves some 13 points behind league leaders Leverkusen.
Still, despite recent troubles, the hosts should be backed to claim the points against a Mainz side that continues to struggle this season. Jan Siewert´s side have won just one of their last 20 Bundesliga matches since April, and sit joint bottom of the division with only points collected.
Mainz have proven tough to beat in recent away matches, remarkably drawing each of their last five Bundesliga road fixtures.
The visitors do have a remarkably good record in this fixture which should serve as a warning to those looking to back Dortmund at a short price. Mainz have lost just two of seven previous trips to this venue since 2020. In addition, the Karnevalsverein have scored at least one goal in ten of 11 previous away matches against Dortmund
With die Schwarzgelben seeing BTTS in 11 of their last 14 Bundesliga games, including each of the last five, both to score has to be the call on Tuesday.
