Zenit vs Krasnodar: Predictions and Betting Tips

Zenit

Zenit are on track to win yet another season in the Russian league, having started strongly with two wins from two games.  and this weekend they face one of the toughest rivals in the league, Krasnodar.

Zenit have managed to score seven goals in the first two games and have conceded three goals.

In the last six matches between the two teams, they have not lost to Krasnodar, four wins and two draws.

Krasnodar

Krasnodar suffered an unpleasant surprise in their second match, losing 0-1 at home to Khimki. It is these types of matches and results that show that Krasnodar are not as solid as they should be, and are lacking consistency, despite the collective quality of their team. It is this which may prevent them from finishing top of the standings.

In their last 15 meetings against Zenit, Krasnodar have won only three matches. The remainders have been largely defeats with only an occasional draw.

Key Stats:

• 15 consecutive matches without losing for Zenit, comprising 11 wins and four draws
• Zenit’s last five games have ended with over 3.5 total match goals
• One win, two draws, and two defeats for Krasnodar in their last five games
• Krasnodar have conceded five goals in their last five games

Zenit vs Krasnodar Predictions

At the moment, Zenit are the strongest team in Russia, and, when they are playing at home, their power is even greater. Krasnodar, in theory, are one of the best teams in the league, but they have been known to suffer some shock losses, offering up very poor performances, as in their last game. That is why we think Zenit will win this match without too much problems.
