Spartak Moskva - Zenit predictions

Spartak Moskva will have to put on their best performance to record a home win against Zenit. The price of 2.99 indicates a difficult battle and that’s exactly what we expect to see in this match.

Despite playing away, Zenit are more likely to win this showdown than the hosts. It’s not a done deal, of course. Considering the betting odds for an away win are set at 2.50, we’re in for a close game.

Spartak Moskva are coming on the back of a devastating 4:2 defeat by Lokomotiv Moskva in the previous round. Although they played as the visitors, most bookies actually gave them slightly favourable pre-match betting odds, but the inconclusive first half was a clear signal that something was off. However, the goal difference was the result of a horrible second half.

The last Premier League clash brought nothing but disappointment for the Zenit supporters. Their highly favoured team fell behind in the first half and never managed to recover. In the end, a 1:0 defeat is something they will be eager to put behind them asap.

Spartak Moskva’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 8 goals throughout their latest three Premier League matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

We can look forward to an exciting game as both teams have their full lineups available, thanks to no suspensions or injuries.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
