What to expect
We expect about 1.3 goals from Hamburg and 1.3 from Mainz, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 2.6 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Mainz come into this on three straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Both teams to score. Both of these carry enough of a threat to find the net (xG 1.3-1.3), and we make both teams to score about 59%. Expect goals at either end rather than a one-sided shut-out.
We put the chance of that landing at about 59 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.57, which works out at about 64 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

One thing to watch
If one attack goes missing for the night, both teams scoring falls flat. The price is shorter than our own read of about 59%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
