The first meeting in Moscow ended in a draw, the game was played with few dangerous moments, no one had a clear advantage, CSKA looked a bit more favourable, as they played at home, but still Zenit managed to equalise at the very end of the game.
It will be much more difficult for CSKA in St. Petersburg, although the teams just played each other on 11 May at the Gazprom Arena, where the ‘horses’ won 0-1, this victory may put an end to Zenit's chances of becoming champions this season, as Dinamo are now 2 points ahead.
But today the teams will play each other for a trip to the main final of the Cup of Russia, the chances are roughly equal, Zenit although playing at home, but the hosts are in terrible shape now. There is a chance that the winner will be decided after the main time, CSKA is quite capable to convert the game into a draw, given Zenit's poor form.
Prediction: CSKA double chance. We recommend the “X2” bet, odds 1.92
