In the course of the current season, Zenit has not been able to get to the usual first place in the Premier League standings. For the first time in the last five years, they were in the chasing position for such a long time, but at the end of the last round, they still broke into the league leaders. Rostov, who beat Krasnodar 2:1 in their game, helped them a lot, while the Neva team had no problems with Ural 4:1 away. Now they need to focus on their performance in the FONBET Cup of Russia, where they took first place in Quartet C at the end of the group stage, but they lost to Dynamo Moscow 0:1.
Dynamo Moscow
Dynamo once again threatens to produce the best season in the last three decades. Quite recently, they had already made a similar story when, under Sandro Schwarz's leadership, they claimed the title in the Russian championship - failed, then reached the final of the Russian Cup - lost to Spartak. Last year was a disappointing one for the team, but now they are making another attempt to fight for the long-awaited trophies. In the Premier League, they played well in both games after the winter break, beating Lokomotiv Moscow and Akhmat 2:1 and 2:0, respectively, to reduce the gap to two points. In the FONBET Cup of Russia, they have already reached the quarter-final of the RPL, where they beat Zenit 1:0 in the first game.
Expert Betting Tips
Dinamo, under the leadership of Marcel Licka, has shown perfect results so far in the games with Zenit. For starters, they upset the St. Petersburg players in the Premier League - 3:2, and then left the first battle in the quarter-finals of the Russian Cup on the RPL way - 1:0. All this now forces the team to play exclusively for victory in order to continue their performance in the top net of the tournament. At the same time, Sergei Semak's wards have the prerequisites for a positive result. They traditionally play well at the Gazprom Arena, and in the last 11 head-to-head meetings with Dynamo in St. Petersburg, they won nine times.
Apparently, Zenit and Dynamo have agreed that they will treat only the Neva crowd to colourful and effective football, as the last seven head-to-head meetings in Moscow have ended with the total under. On the other hand, in 11 previous face-to-face battles in St Petersburg there were 41 goal kicks (3.73 per game on average). In addition, in the last five encounters at the Gazprom Arena, the rivals have always exchanged goals.
