Leverkusen needs to build on a decent season from last years. 4th place and a Champions League spot was a reward for their troubles. Leverkusen will be looking to put out their strongest team in this encounter against Hoffenheim looking forward to starting of the season with a victory. Hoffenheim are a shadow of a team that they were and that was clearly seen then they were dumped out in the 1st round of the DFB Pokal by 2-0 scoreline to 1860 Munich. They have bought 11 players and sold off 11 players, so its going to take time for the players to settle in as a solid team. Home team should get a comfortable win here. Smaller stake for this one. Good Luck.
Mainz had to get satisfied with eleventh position last season only five points more than relegating zone. Of course, the club wants to improve this season and to be once again battle for European Cups. Many changes in the team and they will need some time in order to start playing as a real team. They weren't impressive during friendlies, but surprising performance over Lazio in a 3:0 victory is a good sign. Ingolstadt ended the previous season as champions of second Bundesliga with five points more than second placed Darmstadt. They didn’t change that much during the transfer season, with biggest arrivals being goalkeeper Nyland from Molde and striker Kachunga from Paderborn. I was torn betwenn home win and over 2.5 and deciding factor: There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Mainz’s last 3 games in the Bundesliga. Implied odds combined with good price gives of a decent bet for me. Good Luck.
Darmstadt won 5:0 away from home against Erndtebruck in the first round of German DFB Pokal, scoring twice in the first quarter of the game which made their life easy in this one. Coach Schuster said that they are gonna play with a very warm heart, but cold in mind, adding that everyone needs to play with great commitment and attention. Hannover started their campaign in the new season with a 2:0 away victory against Kassel, team from fourth division. However, the game was far from easy for the visitors, as their goalkeeper made several interventions and generally was one of the better performers on the field. It seems that they still need time to start playing well, having very little creativity in their play for now. Open game is what i expect here and odds for this game are high, a bit too high for me to miss. Smaller stake for this one. Good Luck.
Last 20 games these teams played dated back 98 season have gone 13-6-1 in terms of the home team. And only 2 out of those 20 meetings were ended in 0:0. Both of these teams were really hoping for a win in the first round. Everton was loosing twice against Watford at home and despite having dominated the ball they failed to produce more chances than the visiting team. Southampton was a better team in their match against Newcastle and i feel they will be a better team today as well. I was torn between BTTS or a home win and i opted for a home win. Deciding factor: Saints manager Ronald Koeman will also return to the Southampton bench after missing last game while recovering from surgery to a ruptured Achilles. Medium stake for this one. Good Luck
