The hosts are searching for their first win since the end of October as they bid to move into the top half of the table. They have also lost each of their last five home meetings with Dortmund and will be searching for their first win on home soil against them since September 2014. Dortmund, meanwhile, suffered back-to-back defeats against Wolfsburg and Borussia Monchengladbach before the World Cup break, but they returned to winning ways on Sunday with a thrilling 4-3 victory at home against Augsburg. Clearly they will fancy their chances against Mainz. Certainly it will be a game for the neutrals
