Dortmund should get back on track at Mainz

BT Sport, from 5.30pm Tuesday

Wolfsburg v LeipzigBT Sport 2, 5.30pm
Wolfsburg have responded well to an opening-day defeat against visiting Borussia Dortmund – they are unbeaten in their seven home league matches since – and could spring a surprise against second-placed Leipzig.

The lively visitors are winless in three away league games and a 4-0 hiding at Hoffenheim in their latest road trip suggests they are happier on home soil.

Recommendation
Wolfsburg draw no bet
1pt 11-10 general

Key stat
Leipzig have shipped ten goals in their last four away league matches.

Mainz v DortmundBT Sport 2, 7.30pm
Dortmund's 2-1 defeat at home to poor-travelling Werder Bremen on Saturday led to Peter Bosz being sacked but the change of manager could have the desired effect when BVB travel to Mainz.

The visitors are winless in eight league games but Peter Stoger's arrival should kick them into gear and they may prove too explosive for Mainz, who have shipped seven goals in their last three Bundesliga matches.

Recommendation
Borussia Dortmund
2pts 8-11 bet365, Betway, Hills

Key stat
Mainz have won just one of their last seven league games.

Hamburg v Eintracht FrankfurtBT Sport ESPN, 7.30pm
Only goal difference separates Hamburg from the drop zone but they have kept three consecutive league clean sheets and should fancy their chances of getting something from their clash with Eintracht Frankfurt.

Champions Bayern, second-placed Leipzig and an exuberant Dortmund side are the only teams to win in Hamburg this term and the visitors, who are unbeaten in four away league games, may have to settle for a point.

Recommendation
Draw
1pt 23-10 188Bet

Key stat
Three of the last four meetings between the teams have been drawn.
