Borussia Dortmund take on the visitors Mainz in the round one match of new season in Bundesliga. The match takes place at Signal Iduna Park on Saturday, August 27th.
Borussia Dortmund came second behind Bayern Munich in both Bundesliga and German Cup, losing the final. Thomas Tuchel’s team changed greatly this summer. Dortmund sold Mkhitaryan, Hummels and Gundogan and Blaszczykowski, earning over 100m euros and signed up whole new team with that money as Schurrle, Gotze, Ousmane Dembele, Rode, Guerreiro, Bartra, Emre Mor and Mikel Merino will play for Borussia this season.

Mainz had excellent season 2015/16, finishing on sixth position in Bundesliga and will play in Europa League this fall. The star of the new season wasn’t confident as they advanced for the round of 32 in German Cup beating Unterhaching on penalties (3-3 after full time). The team need improve their performance in defense if they count on repeating last year success.
Borussia Dortmund show excellent results in recent head-to-heads with the visiting side, taking wins in last three of these games with 8-2 on aggregate. Considering strong offensive line of Tuchel’s side and awful performance in defense showed by Mainz in clash with representative of low division, we can expect the hosts to take home win and do that with confident advantage.
Prediction for the match: Borussia Dortmund to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
