Orenburg - Zenit predictions

A home win is not something we would recommend betting on at the odds of 6.12 – but you’re probably aware of that already. It would take a miracle for Orenburg to pull off even a draw, let alone a win as underdogs.

Taking a 1.47 bet on an away game can often be risky but when it comes to Zenit ahead of their trip to Orenburg, this match can be a great addition to your betting slip.

No one expected Orenburg to win the previous round at Makhachkala – they were the visiting team in a highly disfavourable matchup. Even though they somehow managed to end the first half with a lead, their opponents went home with 3 points after a narrow 2:1 win.

The previous 1:2 victory we saw from Zenit was not exactly flashy or decisive, but it got the job done and netted them 3 points either way. An early lead against Akhmat Grozny led them straight into an away win.

With 8 concessions over the last 3 matches, Orenburg will definitely have to make some improvements in their defensive line.

While some teams tend to struggle as visitors, Zenit seem to thrive. A quick look at their recent records shows more than 5 total goals in the last 3 away games, indicating rather prolific strikers and a solid goal-scoring form.

Orenburg already played against Zenit in an earlier round of this Premier League season. Zenit ended that match with a solid home win, though it wasn’t exactly a decisive victory. They’ll be trying to repeat that success, though it’s worth keeping in mind that they’re the away team this round.

With no injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their full rosters available for an exciting showdown.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 1 at 1xbet.
