Prediction

  • FC Krasnodar won their last six league matches and remain undefeated in the league this season. Murad Musaev’s men are extremely motivated ahead of Saturday’s match and if they win, they will overcome FC Zenit at the top of the standings.
  • FC Zenit are also going through a great moment of form after three consecutive wins and are also yet to lose a league match so far this season.
  • It will surely be an extremely close match with no real favourites to win. Although the home side might have a slight upper hand, a draw is the most likely outcome here.
