Tip and bets

1.75Handicap (-1) to Zenit

Zenit stumbled over Lokomotiv in the last round. They didn't show exciting football and couldn't secure a victory over the opponent, who were one player short for most of the game. Surely Zenit will try to avoid repeating their mistakes. Overall, the champions are in great shape and have a serious advantage in class. In recent years Zenit struggles to play well in Ufa, but today they can break this streak.

Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1)to Zenit.

1.67Total under 3 goals

Ufa traditionally rely on defense and they are unlikely to change their style in a duel with Zenit.

Zenit have scored a lot at the start of the season, but we don't expect a high-scoring game in Ufa. In the last two matches in Ufa, the Blue-white-blues did not score a single goal.

Our second bet - total under 3 goals.
