Zenit is having another solid season. In the end, they will win their fifth consecutive league title. Their last real threat was in the previous round when they played their closest pursuer in the standings. True, Sergey Semak's charges couldn't defeat Rostov, drawing 1:1, but it was enough to keep a nine-game lead. They will now try to ensure the title falls at home against Spartak. The club could claim it and also taunt their bitter rival.
Dinamo
Dinamo is finishing this season without any motivation. They have already left the Russian Cup. They hold only fifth place in the championship, six points behind the top three. At the same time, their playing is of mediocre quality. They did beat Pari NN 3:1 last week, but they saw few scoring opportunities until the 79th minute before netting three goals. Before that, Slavisa Jokanovic's charges settled for a 3:3 draw in the derby with Spartak and a 0:2 home loss to Sochi.
Expert Betting Tips
Zenit returns to St. Petersburg for the first home game in three weeks to get revenge on Dinamo for the defeat in the Russian Cup. There is every reason to do so, given that the visitors could be performing better this spring. Semak's charges should use that. They had a decent away game against Lokomotiv and Rostov and now will try to get three points. Moreover, the St. Petersburg club has defeated Dynamo in their last seven faceoffs at home in the league.
Surprisingly, all their recent H2H meetings in Moscow are goalless, but the opponents play merrily and productively in St. Petersburg. In the previous seven games, they scored 27 goals (3.86 on average). Moreover, the opponents have also exchanged goals in four of the last five encounters.
