A memorable week on the field for Borussia Dortmund concludes on the road this Saturday in the Bundesliga, as the Champions League finalists travel to relegation-threatened Mainz.
It has been a famous week in the history of Borussia Dortmund, as they achieved an unlikely position in the Champions League final after beating PSG 2-0 on aggregate. A date with destiny at Wembley is now set, but their focus must switch back to domestic matters for the final two rounds of Bundesliga matches.
Mainz will have their entire focus on this fixture in the Bundesliga, as they are still fighting for their lives at the bottom of the standings. The German side sits five points clear of the automatic relegation places, but they will need to pick up vital points across the final two weekends to avoid finishing in the relegation place.
Dortmund have been excellent on the road in the Bundesliga throughout this season. That dominance is shown by the fact that they have suffered just one defeat in their last eleven on the road. They have picked up 30 points on their travels, which is the second-best record of any side in the Bundesliga.
Bet hereBut Mainz have been in terrific form in home matches under Bo Henriksen. The current coach has an unbeaten record at MEWA Arena after winning four and playing out two draws. Interestingly, no side has picked up more home points in the Bundesliga since Henriksen was appointed in February. They also come into this important fixture after going seven league matches without a defeat. That sequence is only bettered by Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga.
Mainz have a poor record against Dortmund after failing to win in their last seven against their rivals. Dortmund have recorded four wins over that period, with three matches ending in draws. The visitors have also claimed victories in each of their last six visits to Mainz.
This is a very interesting fixture on Saturday in the Bundesliga. However, given the highs that Dortmund enjoyed in midweek, there could be the potential for a flat performance on Saturday. Therefore, a chance could be taken on Mainz or Draw in the double chance market to enhance their excellent recent home record in the Bundesliga.
