👉 Our prediction is: Over 2.5 goals in the match

We strongly suggest taking the total to go over 2.5 goals in this matchup between Zenit and FK Sochi.

With the high quality of attacking talent on display coupled with the questionable defence of both teams, this bet has a great chance of hitting.

👉 Our prediction is: Zenit win or draw

Our top betting tip is Zenit to win or draw on the Double Chance market. What that means is Zenit, the home team, must win or draw for the bet to win, and we feel strongly that the match will end in one of those two outcomes.

We simply don't see Zenit losing to FK Sochi. More than the gulf in quality between the two sides which is clear to see in the statistics, we also have a lot of belief in Zenit's ability to make home advantage count in this match.
