Olimpiyets - Zenit predictions

It would take a small miracle for the hosts to get to a stalemate this match, let alone win somehow. A quick look at the 9.77 price for a home win should be enough to tell you that, though.

Zenit are expected to win this match, which is made quite clear by the 1.31 odds that can be found with most bookies. The odds are not so short as to make an Away Win bet not worth taking, though, which also implies a certain degree of risk.

Olimpiyets are coming off of a strange sort of success – they secured a 0:0 draw against vastly stronger opposition. The held the line at Stade Municipal 1 against Rubin Kazan' , who never quite managed to pull ahead.

A point from the game they were supposed to have no problems winning will have left Zenit scratching their heads. Following their HT/FT draw against Krylya Sovetov, it’s fair to assume Zenit will be raring to go this Sunday.

With two almost goalless matches behind them, we’re not convinced matches in which Olimpiyets are playing are good for markets such as Over 5 Goals. In the interest of seeing some excitement, we hope that they’ll manage to buck the trend.

With 6 goals in their previous 3 Premier League matches, Zenit boast some of the most prolific strikers of the league. Top online bookies are predicting another action-packed game.

It’s clear that Zenit are the favourites in this matchup, and they have the numbers to back that up. They faced Olimpiyets earlier this season and snagged a decisive victory which they’ll be looking to repeat.

Both teams will have a complete lineup for an exciting showdown, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

Priced at 9.52 with Pncl, a Draw/Away wager in the Half Time/Full Time market is the best offer in terms of betting value. It’s still quite risky, mind you, so we don’t recommend putting up a huge stake.
