Mainz – Trondheim Tip Conference League, Qualification, Playoffs, Second Leg on Thursday, 10/28/25 at 9:00 p.m.
It would be a bitter blow for the Bundesliga and all betting providers with a German license. There are quite a few domestic sports betting fans who would have liked to place soccer bets on Mainz this season.
However, none of this will be possible if Mainz cannot make up for their 1-2 defeat in the first leg. Is the danger really as great as is generally assumed?
According to my Mainz Trondheim prediction, no. Although M05 lost a home game for the first time in a long time against Cologne at the weekend, on paper they are still too strong for the Norwegians, who are limited in their play.
My Mainz Trondheim tip: Mainz/Mainz
These are the arguments for my tip:
- M05 has lost only 1 of its 8 European Cup home games!
- M05 has lost only 1 of its last 12 competitive home games!
- Rosenborg has won only 1 of a total of 9 European Cup games against Bundesliga clubs!
Mainz vs. Trondheim AI predictions:
Shall I tell you something? The first suggestion that ChatGPT came up with in its Mainz Trondheim AI prediction is by no means far-fetched.
Because “Mainz qualifies in extra time” is definitely worth considering at odds of around 8.50 in the Betano app. I expect Mainz to be ahead after 90 minutes, most likely with a score of 1-0 or 2-1.
Predicted chance of winning:
| Mainz win |
Draw |
Rosenborg Trondheim win |
| 57.4% |
18.1% |
24.5% |
“Under 2.5 goals” at odds of around 2.10 is a suggestion that is not exactly dripping with “value,” but still has a positive expected value.
With 1:0, 2:0, 0:0, 1:1, and 2:1, four of the five most likely final scores in my opinion are below this mark.
“M05 scores a goal in both halves: No” at around 1.58, on the other hand, is what I consider to be a safe AI suggestion. This is because the Norwegians should be able to keep a clean sheet for at least one half.
What you need to consider when betting on Mainz vs. Trondheim
- Mainz has lost two competitive games in a row for the first time since January.
- Rosenborg has conceded only one goal in its last five European Cup games.
- There have been under 2.5 goals in each of Mainz 05’s last 7 European home games.
- Rosenberg achieved an impressive xG value of 2.57 in the first leg.
