In the Russian Cup match, Fakel and Zenit are likely to field their reserve teams, so high scoring is not expected. Both teams are likely to play cautiously, as the result of this match is not of great importance to them. I suggest betting on under 2.5 goals in this game.
In the match between Fakel and Zenit in the Russian Cup, both teams are likely to score, as Fakel has shown improved performance after a change in coach and may try to score a goal against Zenit in an official match. Zenit is likely to field a second-team lineup that will want to prove themselves. Both teams may show attacking intent, giving a good chance of goals scored by both sides.
"Zenit" is in excellent form, showing confident victories both in the championship and in the Russian Cup. The main lineup of the team is ready to demonstrate its strength and superiority. Meanwhile, "Fakel" is in poor form, losing most matches this season. Taking into account all factors, it is expected that "Zenit" will win by a large margin and secure victory with a handicap (-1.5) in this match.
