Tip and bets
Teams are close to each other in the standings and a winner of this match might climb to the top half of the table, the European places are just three points away. Mainz had a poor run of form recently, so they are unlikely to win this game.
Leipzig are in a much better shape - the Bulls showcased an impressive display in recent match, which delivered positive results. No one will be satisfied with a draw today, so we offer to place a bet on total over, both opponents have the ability to score a couple of goals.
Our prediction - total over 2.5 goals
In our opinion, visitors have a significant advantage in class and experience, they are also in a much better physical condition. Mainz will play at home and Leipzig wasted much energy in the Champions League, but the Carnival Club just can't find their game right now. We don't think that hosts have what it takes to contain the opponent, but a bet on a zero handicap will be much safer.
Our second bet - Asian handicap (0) on Leipzig
