Zenit Saint Petersburg vs Tambov
Russia – Premier League
Date: Saturday, August 22, 2024
Starts at 16pm UK / 00pm CET

The Lions have long been the best team in the country and were expected to win the title last year, also in impressive style. In fact, they had a 15-point lead over second-placed Lokomotiv Moscow at the end of the season.

Meanwhile, it was the team that scored the most goals in the competition: 65, and the second best, only 49. And it also conceded the lowest number: 18, and no other team managed to keep it below 20.

They too raced to the top of the table this time around and made a confident statement that they are defending their title.

And to tip the scales even further in their favour, they face Sergei Pervushin's men, who had risen to the top flight the previous season. Not only are they inexperienced, they also have a 100% losing record against their rivals, and are off to a worrying start to their new campaign.

Of course, expect Zenit to win this Saturday.

Russia – Premier League
Date: Saturday, August 22, 2024
Starts at 18pm UK / 00pm CET

The Cyan Blues are the newest addition to the Premier League and, unsurprisingly, are struggling to make any sort of impact in this new environment. They find it difficult to deal with the intensity and level of competition here.

The horses have long been one of the best teams in the competition, and last season they narrowly missed out on the Champions League.

They seem determined to make amends and have had an excellent start to the season. It had a record of 100% wins in the championship, until it faced Zenit, current champions.

Even so, Viktor Goncharenko's charges made Zenit suffer for the first time this season, which almost caused them to lose their money.
