Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Akhmat vs Zenit

Akhmat

Akhmat suffered his first defeat this season, losing to Sochi 1:2 on the road. Andrey Talalaev's wards did not conduct the meeting in the best way, not only did the team concede an own goal in the first half, but the mentor himself received a removal before the break. In the second segment, the "green-whites" could not think of anything for a long time, which is why the Sochi team doubled their lead. Only after that, the guests added a few, with the efforts of Troshechkin, soaking the account.

Akhmat is ranked 6th in the Premier League, earning 4 points, with a goal difference of 4:4.

Zenit

Zenit scored a terrific move, defeating Lokomotiv 5:0 in the last duel. The Blue-White-Blues completely outplayed the opponent, but the fans did not see any goals scored in the first half. Only after the expiration of an hour of playing time, the guys of Sergei Semak broke through, 3 goals flew into the gates of the guests in less than 20 minutes. Well, when the “locomotives” remained in the minority, then the Petersburgers brought the score simply to the point of indecent. Sergeev (double), Bakaev, Claudinho and Wendel scored goals for the "anti-aircraft gunners".

Zenit takes 1st place in the league with 7 points, with a goal difference of 9:1.

Zenit is in great shape, which allows the club to hope for victory in every match of the Russian championship. Taking into account the instability of the hosts, and the excellent form of the Brazilians from St. Petersburg, I think Semak will achieve another victory: the victory of Zenit - 1.66.
