① Rostov's home form and solidity give them the edge.

② Baltika will need a clever plan to threaten, likely limited to countering.

③ A clean sheet for Rostov seems plausible as they control midfield.

① Zenit's superiority in quality and depth should shine on the road.

② Baltika will try to frustrate with disciplined defending.

③ Expect a high-event game with goals from both sides and three or more total.

① Zenit St. Petersburg are overwhelming favorites at home against Baltika.

② Baltika may defend stubbornly, but are unlikely to prevent multiple goals.

③ A high-probability clean sheet and a comfortable win for Zenit is expected.
