THE PREDICTION
The Russian Premier League concluded last season in bizarre and fairly surreal circumstances. As Russia waged war on Ukraine, following the February invasion, football in Ukraine stopped but Russia continued. Russian clubs have been banned from UEFA competitions for an indefinite amount of time and that has, as unimportant as it seems in the circumstances, killed the competitiveness and meaningfulness with little to play for between top spot and the relegation zone. So, that will have another bearing on the standard and style of these matches - and that must be noted. Khimki finished last season just outside of the bottom four and the relegation places and they will, once again, be expected to struggle. Zenit have dominated Russian football in recent seasons and they hammered Spartak Moscow by four goals to nil last weekend in the Russian Super Cup. This should be a comfortable away win.
