There's Bundesliga action at Signal Iduna Park on Sunday, when Dortmund and Mainz will clash. In previous seasons, this would be a game between a top-of-the-table challenger and a bottom-half team in favour of Dortmund, but this year it's roles reversed, with Mainz flying high and Dortmund struggling. The hosts come into this game off the back losing to RB Leipzig last time out, a result that signalled just two league wins in their last six. Such a run of form has left Niko Kovac's men down in a rather unflattering 11th position.
In contrast, the visitors, who've won each of their last three road games, come into Sunday's game sitting in a lofty third position. Right now, Bo Henriksen's men are well on course to booking themselves a place in the 2025/26 renewal of the UEFA Champions League. Moreover, they should fancy themselves to get a result here after recently going six games unbeaten, four of which they've won.

Our Borussia Dortmund vs 1 Fsv Mainz 05 Prediction
Let's be honest, given how inconsistent the hosts have been at home, the visitors, who are clearly a tricky side to face, look far too generously priced here. We know that the men in yellow have had their issues this season, while they are much more likely to be bothered about the UCL at this stage of the campaign. Factor in the recent road effort of Mainz and opposing the hosts is easy to do. Our Dortmund vs Mainz Pick: Mainz Draw No Bet.
