The 2022/23 Bundesliga season will wrap up this Saturday, with Borussia Dortmund welcoming Mainz to Signal Iduna Park.
The hosts will be desperate to end the season on a high note after reclaiming the title initiative thanks to a 3-0 win over ten-men Augsburg in their last outing.
That win, coupled with Bayern Munich’s 3-1 loss at home to RB Leipzig, means that Edin Terzic’s men can become the German champions for the first time in eleven years if they win this game against Mainz.
So it’s all or nothing for BVB, who will do all they can to ensure they end Bayern’s dominance and secure their ninth Bundesliga title.

Their home form ahead of this game makes them the favourites for a win here, with their eleven consecutive wins at the Signal Iduna Park their longest home winning streak this century.
Meanwhile, Mainz will look to play the role of title spoilers when they travel to Signal Iduna Park on Saturday.
The 05ers looked like a credible threat to European places recently. Yet a run of four straight defeats, which came after a ten-game unbeaten run of the league, has set them on the path to a tepid end to what seemed a promising campaign.
But Bo Svensson’s ninth-placed Mainz will at least hope to end the season with a win and record their first away win in three attempts.
Meanwhile, Mainz did Dortmund a favour earlier in the campaign by defeating Bayern 3-1, and Bayern will now pray that Mainz will build on a respectable record across their last three trips to Dortmund (W1, D1, L1) and return the favour.
