Team News

Zenit
FC Rostov
  • Brazilian defender Rodrigão is undergoing an individual training programme in order to recover from a recent injury and is a doubt here.
  • Ilzat Akhmetov remains sidelined due to injury and might return to training this week. The Russian midfielder will surely miss Saturday’s match.
  • Winger Ivan Komarov has been recovering from a persistent injury and will miss the upcoming visit to Saint Petersburg.
  • Iran international Mohammad Mohebi is being treated for a foot injury and is likely to be out for another two weeks.
  • Midfielder Alexey Mironov will not feature here due to a long-term knee injury.

Prediction

  • FC Zenit are going through an excellent moment of form. Sergey Semak’s men scored eight goals in the first two matches of the season and conceded none. The Saint Petersburg outfit are favourites to win here.
  • FC Rostov pulled off their first win of the season last Friday at Samara and are certainly hoping to cause a major upset to the RPL champions here. Their midweek defeat in the Russian Cup might have a negative impact on the team.
