Mainz vs RB Leipzig Betting Odds

In the betting odds for this match, RB Leipzig are the clear favourites to win at odds of 4/9 with bet365.

The odds for the draw are 7/2 and the odds for Bayer Leverkusen to win are 11/2 with bet365.

If you think both teams will score in this game you’ll get 8/13.

The odds for over 2.5 goals in this game are 4/9.

 

Both Teams to Score – No – 6/5 with Bet365

The hosts’ defensive record is the second-worst in the league, averaging over two goals against across their 26 league games this campaign. Meanwhile, RB Leipzig have kept four shutouts since the start of February, including a 0-0 draw with leaders Bayern Munich. Only Bayern can top Leipzig’s defensive record this season, conceding one fewer than the title-chasers.

The last time these two faced eachother in the league, RB Leipzig demolished Mainz in an incredible 8-0 win. Another win to nil looks on the cards this weekend and that’s where we’re kicking off our Sunday betting tips for this match.

 

Correct Score Tip: RB Leipzig to Win 2-0 – 8/1 with bet365

Mainz had suffered just one defeat from their last five league games heading into lockdown, their best form of the season. They continued their steady form with a 2-2 draw against Koln last weekend, making it just one defeat in their last six. Despite the reasonable form, Mainz have struggled defensively, keeping just two clean sheets since late December.

RB Leipzig are seven points adrift from league leaders Bayern Munich with just eight games to play. Their draw last weekend may well have ended their title hopes and it will have to be a near-perfect run-in to stand a chance of catching Bayern.

 

First Scorer Tip: Timo Werner to Score First – 6/4 with Bet365

Timo Werner was well on his way to his best goalscoring season before the enforced postponement. Only Robert Lewandowski has outscored Werner in Germany’s top flight so far this season. Werner has hit 21 for the campaign, averaging a goal every 102 minutes for RB Leipzig.

As already mentioned, Mainz have been poor defensively this season, conceding 55 goals in 26 matches, over 2 goals a game. Werner was unable to help his side to victory last weekend but with many top clubs such as Liverpool monitoring his performances closely, he looks a solid bet to net his 22^nd league goal of the season.
