How the crowd called it

Why we called it

Mainz and Leverkusen are level on seven points with ten goals apiece: Mainz won 5-0 at Hamburg and 2-1 at Gladbach with Phillip Tietz on four goals, while Leverkusen beat Leipzig 2-0 after a 1-1 at Augsburg, with Patrik Schick also on four. Mainz are without Kohr and Silas, Leverkusen miss Doue and Eichhorn, and both probable XIs keep their main strikers. The market has Leverkusen only marginally ahead at around 2.2, so I classify this as a coin-flip and call a 1-1 draw on the score market, with both sides' scoring records pointing to a goal each rather than a clean sheet.
