LiontipsZenit - Baltika: betting tip (cf 4.80) and bets on the Premier League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Zenit was approaching the start of the season as the main contender for the championship title and had an advantage over all competitors in terms of player selection. However, already in the first round, Sergey Semak's team made a number of mistakes and had to catch up with Krasnodar throughout the last segment of the tournament, but not only the bulls are now competitors in the fight for the title.
Zenit took the second place in the table with 39 points for the winter break – Krasnodar is only one point ahead of the leader and today there is a chance to return to the first place. However, the blue-white-Blues are seriously under pressure from Lokomotiv, which has only two points less, CSKA is three points away, and Baltika is also five points below.
In the winter, Zenit left Gerson, who only came to St. Petersburg in the summer and was supposed to become one of their key players, but it didn't work out – in the winter the midfielder moved to Cruzeiro. The St. Petersburg team made an exchange with CSKA, getting Igor Diveev and giving Luciano Gonda to the army. Zenit also acquired midfielder John John from Bragantine and John Duran came on loan from Al-Nasr.
During the winter break, Zenit played at the RPL Winter Winline Cup and scored only one victory over Dynamo Moscow. CSKA St. Petersburg lost in a penalty shootout, and Krasnodar lost 0:3 without much chance.

Current form
Baltika returned to the Premier League this season and was not considered a clear candidate for relegation before the start of the championship, having a fairly high-quality squad. However, at the same time, no one expected serious achievements from Kaliningrad, and they certainly placed their main bet on maintaining their residence permit in the Premier League. At the same time, the starting segment showed that Andrei Talalaev's team is capable of more.
Having managed to play a number of very strong matches at the start, Baltika, contrary to all betting tips and expectations, did not slow down and showed high-quality football, but more importantly– regularly scored points. Baltika suffered their first, and so far only, defeat in the championship as early as the tenth round, losing 0-1 to CSKA Moscow – the Army scored the winning goal in the last seconds.
For the winter break, Baltika left on the fifth line in the table with 35 points in the asset – Krasnodar is the leader by only five points more, Spartak is already six points behind, while Andrey Talalaev's team feels more than comfortable. In winter, Kaliningrad sold Vladislav Saus to Spartak, defender Eduardo Anderson came from the Panamanian Alliance, and striker Derik Lacerda came from Cuiaba.
Disqualifications and injuries
Baltika has no problems with the composition.
Interesting betting trends
- Baltika has suffered only one defeat in 18 Premier League matches.

1.35Tip and bets
Zenit has a great opportunity today, at least for one day, to return to the first place in the table – for this we need a victory over Baltika. In general, the task for the blue-white-blues is not the most difficult – the hosts will have plenty of motivation, there is a serious advantage in the class over the opponent. Baltika looked very decent in the first half of the season, but now they will have to regain their form and whether they will be able to return to their former conditions remains a question, especially since Kaliningrad sold one of its key players to Spartak in the winter. It makes sense to give preference to the favorite in such a duel.
We believe that the guests have no chance. The betting tip is an Asian handicap (-1) for Zenit. This bet is offered for 1.90
Bet on the total
Zenit is certainly the favorite of the match – St. Petersburg are fighting for the championship title, and a victory in today's match will allow them to return to the first place and put pressure on Krasnodar. It is obvious that the hosts will strive to get three points, will put serious pressure on the gates of Baltika and will surely achieve their goal. However, it is hardly worth waiting for a defeat or a scoring extravaganza from each side – after a long pause, more than one round will have to roll into the championship, and in general, the Baltic is very successful in defense.
The bet is a total of less than 2.5 goals. This bet is offered for 1.67
The bet on the difference in the account
Zenit is fighting a desperate battle for the championship title, and in the second part of the championship, the St. Petersburg team can no longer afford to make mistakes in their home matches, and there will clearly be no problems with motivation and concentration. The hosts are quite capable of justifying the status of the favorite – Zenit plays at home, has a huge advantage in class over the opponent. It makes sense to count on a confident victory for the blue-white-blues today, but it also hardly makes sense to count on a defeat.
The bet is Zenit's two–goal victory. This bet is offered for 4.80
