CSKA - Zenit: betting tip (cf 3.60) and bets on the Premier League match

Current form

CSKA was betting on fighting for third place after the winter break. For this, the army had everything, first of all, the level of personnel, which was also solidly strengthened. However, almost immediately, expectations, hopes and betting tips began to crumble. Immediately after the break, the Muscovites suffered three defeats in a row in the RPL. Then we managed to stabilize the situation somewhat, we defeated two outsiders, Dynamo Makhachkala (3:1) and Akron (1:2), but we could not keep up such a pace.

In the last four rounds, CSKA did not have the most difficult calendar, not a single opponent from the top 6, a great opportunity to score a decent number of points. Instead, Fabio Celestini's team did not win a single victory during this period, taking only three out of a possible 12 points. It is not surprising that with such results, the Army team is only in sixth place by the start of the 28th round and is five points behind the top 3.

Celestini's men in attack are not impressive at all right now. They scored more than one goal back on April 4, when they defeated Akron with a score of 2:1. The game in the previous round against Rubin in Kazan (0-0) was significant, where they failed to score, although they scored eight shots on goal, but they did not actually create any really dangerous moments.

Disqualifications and injuries

Glebov, Lukin, Akinfeev and Moises are in the CSKA infirmary.

Interesting betting trends

• In eight of the last nine matches, CSKA players fouled less often than their opponents.
• In three rounds in a row, the army men parted in peace with their rivals.
• CSKA has not won in four consecutive matches in the first half.

Approximate composition: Torop — Gaich, Joao Victor, Danilov, Reis — Barinov, Kislyak — Krugovoy, Oblyakov, Karmo — Gondu.

Current form

Zenit has left a mixed impression on the game and results throughout the spring season. On the one hand, the blue-white-blues are still in the fight for gold awards, they are only one point behind Krasnodar, and they have already managed to reach the coveted first place. On the other hand, Sergey Semak's team is playing too cautiously, pragmatically, and betting strictly on the result. In some matches, this approach pays off, but you can't show anything outstanding against top-5 opponents.

In the last four rounds, Zenit managed to play Krasnodar (1:1) and Lokomotiv (0:0). There was no talk of any serious advantage in those meetings. We were lucky with the railwaymen, as Komlichenko did not take a penalty in the end. At the same time, the blue-white-blues are still making progress in the classroom, and Sergey Semak's pragmatic approach is clearly working here. Krylia Sovetov, Dynamo Makhachkala and Akhmat managed to beat without brilliance, in labor matches, in many ways on the class.

Throughout the season, Zenit has no equal in home matches, has not lost a single game, and has won 12 of the last 14 matches. On the road, the Petersburgers have only five wins since the beginning of the championship. However, it is worth noting here that three of them have been won in the last five guest meetings. The experience has an effect when, closer to the end of the season, there is no room for error in the fight for the highest places.

Disqualifications and injuries

Shilov is still in the infirmary, and entering the Mantuan field is questionable.

Interesting betting trends

• Zenit has won three of the last five matches away in the Premier League.
• In six of Zenit's last eight matches, no more than two offsides were recorded.
• In three of Zenit's five previous matches, an accurate score of 0-0 was recorded in the first half.

The approximate line-up: Adamov — Drkusic, Nino, Diveev, Douglas Santos — Barrios, Wendell — Luis Enrique, Pedro, John John — Sobolev.
