MAZ vs LEP Dream11 Team Prediction Tips for Mainz vs RB Leipzig Bundesliga Live Score 15 August

MAZ vs LEP Dream11 Prediction: The opening weekend of the German Bundesliga season continues on Sunday with Mainz 05 hosting RB Leipzig at the Opel Arena. Mainz will be looking to pick up from where they left off after their miraculous finish to last season, whilst Leipzig will hope to start their fresh title challenge strongly.

MAZ vs LEP Dream11 Prediction

After a trophy laden two seasons at Austrian Bundesliga champions RB Salzburg, Jesse Marsch is ready to test himself in the German Bundesliga, succeeding Julian Nagelsmann at RB Leipzig. In a bid to overhaul Nagelsmann’s Bayern Munich this season, Leipzig have signed Eintracht Frankfurt striker Andre Silva, fresh from netting 28 league goals in 2020-21. Supplied by the likes of Sabitzer and Forsberg in midfield, Silva will no doubt be afforded plenty of chances to get on the scoresheet here against a team whose preparation for this match has been hugely disrupted due to an outbreak of Covid-19 and such firepower is likely to overwhelm this Mainz defence.

Who will win?

However, the hosts will be decimated to COVID-19 and Leipzig, with new striker Andre Silva, should fancy their chances under new coach Jesse Marsh. In our MAZ vs LEP Today Match Prediction odds, we back for a 3-1 win for Leipzig in this match.
