Today are kinda good matches with Augsburg facing Hertha Berlin and Hoffenheim facing Mainz. I've gone with most of my money on Hoffenheim to win against Mainz and BTTS on Augsburg vs Hertha Berlin match. Any comments on picks I made?
I also have a single on Hoffenheim to win since they are enjoying a good win streak and I don't see struggling Mainz trouble them at home.
I wouldn't be so sure about a Hoffenheim win here, especially at these odds. Their current streak started with that sensational win at Munich, followed up by a very nice win against this years strong Schalke. But afterwards they got their wins against struggling competition (Hertha, Paderborn, Köln) and that win at Köln was only secured with a penalty in 90+8. They've lost quite a bit of quality in the off-season, but seem to have found their groove again.
Main reason why I think they will struggle a bit today, is that Mainz has a new coach (Beierlorzer, the coach that was just sacked at Köln some days ago). So Beierlorzers' last match was just against this Hoffenheim and he surely has some insight and knows what to do better this time with a different team. New coaches tend to have immediate success in Germany, i.e. not losing away or winning at home unless they play way superior opposition like Köln did at Leipzig yesterday. Mainz are normally a well organized team, with lots of fighting spirit and a good team chemistry. So I think odds for Hoffenheim are a bit low under these circumstances, though you might still win this bet of course.
The BTTS in Augsburg I like as well.
really unlucky day for me.
