“This is the match of the year!
We have crossed the equator of the season.
If Zenit wins, they will be six points ahead.
This is a lot in our championship.
If Spartak wins, the intrigue will begin anew.
I think the majority will cheer for the draw so that as many teams as possible can participate in the championship race.
For me, Zenit is a small favorite, the team all recovered - Malcolm, Serdar Azmun, and Artyom Dzyuba.
The moment of refereeing is a little alarming.
We have known Karasev for a long time, we know how he judges.
He seems to be an international referee, but there is a sin behind him - a lot of controversial penalties and decisions that are not interpreted in a football way.
In which direction, I don’t see yet, but this will need to be paid attention to, ”Mostovy TASS quotes.
The Zenit - Spartak match will take place on Wednesday at the Gazprom Arena stadium.
The meeting starts at 20:00 Moscow time.
The main referee will be Muscovite Sergei Karasev.
Earlier it was reported that Tikhonov did not include Dziuba in the top three RPL players.
