Borussia Dortmund v Mainz: Team News, Predicted Line-Ups, Live Online & TV Info


On Friday, Borussia Dortmund welcome Mainz to the Westfalenstadion in what many fans will hope to be their first consecutive win in the Bundesliga since September 13 last year. 

Jurgen Klopp's side will be in a fantastically buoyant mood following the 3-0 win against Freiburg at the weekend that saw the club move out of the relegation zone. Though further news of Marco Reus' signing a new contract at the club until 2019 totally eclipsed any sense of doom or crisis that has burdened the club this season. 


Their opponent on the night will be a Mainz side who, under coach Kasper Hjulmand, have gone from maintaining an unbeaten run over the course of the first eight games of the season to only winning one game in their last 12 Bundesliga outings. 

The Carnival club remain a hard team to beat—granted they've managed to grab at least a point in six of those last 12 games—but with each disappointing result, their position in the league continues to fall.

Hjulmand's side may not be under the same pressure as Dortmund at the moment, but they could sure use a win to revitalise their season.
