Zenit vs. Fakel: Russian Cup Match Prediction
Zenit has won all three matches in the new season, but should we expect another victory for the favorite on July 30 in the match with Fakel? The answer is in the forecast. Which bet will be successful?

Command Analysis

Zenit St. Petersburg

Zenit started the new season earlier than many competitors and easily defeated Krasnodar 4:2 in the Russian Super Cup. In the championship, Sergei Semak's team also looks very strong - the champion beat Krylia Sovetov and Rubin with the same score of 4:0, immediately securing a place at the top of the table.

Fakel

In the first round of the new season , Fakel met Dynamo in Moscow and offered virtually no resistance to the favorite. Having conceded three times before the break, Igor Cherevchenko's team scored a consolation goal in the second half. In the home match with Akron, Fakel was considered the favorite, but spent the second half short-handed and lost 0:2 to the opponent.

Zenit looks very strong at the start of the season and gives its opponents one defeat after another. It is obvious that the hosts will make a number of changes today, but Zenit has a solid reserve and the rotation of the hosts will not weaken seriously. It is unlikely that Fakel has a chance to avoid a major defeat.
We think that the guests have no chance. Forecast - Asian handicap (-1.5) for Zenit . In BC Fonbet such an outcome is offered with a coefficient of 1.91
Bet on total
Zenit plays open, spectacular football and has scored 12 goals in its last three matches. It is obvious that Fakel's defense, which will obviously not do without rotation, will have plenty of problems, the "blue-whites" concede a lot - it makes sense to count on a goal extravaganza in such a match.
Bet - total over 2.5 goals. In BC Winline such outcome is offered for 1.79
Bet on corners
Zenit are the favourites and will probably spend almost the entire match at the opponent’s goal – the home team should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-3) on corners for Zenit. In the bookmaker Liga Stavok this outcome is offered for 1.75
