Zenit - Rostov betting tips and odds

With the odds set at 1.42 for a home win, Zenit winning is clearly the most likely outcome in this matchup. Bigger upsets have happened, of course, but we wouldn’t expect anything but a decisive home win.

The situation is crystal clear from the current perspective. Given the strength of the home team and the fact Rostov are given 8.00 betting odds to win, a conclusion is not difficult to reach. Anything but a home win would be an incredible surprise.

Zenit displayed rather mediocre form in their previous home game against Spartak Moskva – in the first half, at least. The second 45 minutes saw them take home a stunning 3:1 victory.

Rostov are coming off from a crushing 1:3 defeat at their previous away game. The match was a largely one-sided affair. Top online bookmakers heavily favoured CSKA Moskva, who took the lead in the first half and went on to take home 3 points towards the Premier League title.

With 11 goals in their previous 3 Premier League matches, Zenit’s attacking players have been seeing a lot of success and top bookmakers online are backing them to continue the trend.

Zenit are currently leading the pack in the Premier League standings, with good odds of staying there. The season is well underway now, and their supporters are hoping that they’ll keep the momentum going.

With a series of mixed results in the first half of this Premier League season, Rostov have their eyes set on moving up to a Europa League qualifying spot. Zenit are not about to make it easy for them, though.

Looking over the head-to-head statistics for this Premier League season, the hosts already recorded a victory over Rostov. This puts them ahead of their opponents, which is reflected in the betting odds.

There’s an interesting development over at Saint-Petersburg Stadium. It seems both teams have been struck hard by injuries. On one hand, Zenit_INJURIES will not be playing for the hosts. Conversely, Rostov_INJURIES will all be unavailable on the away side. Both teams will have to deal with limited options.

Our tip is to risk an Over 3.5 Goals wager. The 3.60 are worth giving up the relative safety of a simpler Over 2.5. That said, it’s still a relatively riskier bet than what some punters might prefer.
