TO (2.5)

The forecast for today's match of the "Zenit" team is more optimistic, considering their recent failures in the Russian championship. They will strive to show a better game today and compete for victory. However, it should be taken into account that the opponent may be a stronger team, so "Zenit" will have to demonstrate their best performance. Given the current situation and the team's desire to show their strength, it can be assumed that the match will be tense, but "Zenit" will still be able to achieve a positive result.

Обе забьют Да

In the match between Zenit and Akhmat, an exchange of goals is expected. Zenit is likely to field a rotated squad, focusing more on the RPL. Akhmat, showing a good attacking game, has chances to score goals. Both teams can play an exciting game, and an exchange of goals is likely. The expected score is 2-1 or 3-1 in favor of Zenit.

H1 (-1.5)

In the Russian Cup, Zenit will host Akhmat at home, demonstrating good results in the tournament. Akhmat, on the other hand, may have difficulties with the squad due to possible rotations. Under Cherchesov's guidance, Akhmat shows confident play, which can complicate Zenit's task. However, considering the home advantage and Zenit's desire to make up for the previous defeat in the RPL, it is expected that the hosts will be able to achieve victory. Therefore, it is recommended to bet on Zenit's victory + total under 3.5 goals.

ITO2 (0.5)

I predict that the match between Zenit and Akhmat could be a high-scoring game with goals from both sides. Considering that Zenit may field a reserve team and their defensive issues, Akhmat has a good chance of scoring. It's also worth noting that Cherchesov will likely not make many changes to the lineup, which could help the team in scoring goals. My prediction is that both teams will score in this match.

ITO1 (1.5) Да

Considering the previous results and circumstances, it is anticipated that the match between Zenit and Akhmat will be intense and ambiguous. Although Zenit appears to be the stronger team and has the advantage of playing at home, facing Akhmat could prove challenging due to the desire of Zenit's bench players to prove themselves. Akhmat also has potential, but under pressure, they may make mistakes that Zenit could capitalize on. Most likely, the match will end with a score of 2-1 in favor of Zenit.
