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. Reigning champions Zenit Saint-Petersburg began their 2022/23 campaign with a Russian Super Cup victory against Spartak Moscow. They come into this on the back of a 3-0 hammering of Krylya Sovetov in the league last weekend. They now face a Lokomotiv Moscow side that have started the campaign with back-to-back score draws. Zenit should win this one, especially with home advantage.
