Zenit St Petersburg XI predicts (4-4-2): Mikhail Kerzhakov; Danil Krugovoy, Douglas Santos, Dejan Lovren, Vyasceslav Karavayev; Malcolm, Wilmar Barrios, Magomed Odzoyev, Andrei Mostovoy; Artem Dyzuba, Sardar Azmoun
FC Ufa with PRONOUNCed XI: (5-4-1): Aleksandr Belenov, Bojan Jokic, Jemal Tabitze, Pavel Alikin, Ionut Nedelcearu, Aleksandr Sukov, Azer Aliyev, Igor Bezdenezhnykh, Oleh Danchenko, Kirill Folmer, Timur Zhamaletdinov
Zenit St. Petersburg started the season with gusto and won their first 4 games of the campaign, have failed in recent weeks, with only one win in their last 4 league games.
Despite this, it remains the most sensible of the ranking, even due to the difference in purpose and there is little margin for error, as it is only one point ahead of moscow’s third-placed CSKA.
The next adjustment for Zenit is a clash with the Spartak Moscow, second, which makes a victory here imperative as a renewed confidence in this gun war.
However, they will appreciate their chances against an unusual Ufa who have won one of their last thirteen league games (dating back to last season).
Prediction: Zenit 3-0 FC Ufa
