With the draw 1-1 last week, Zenit confident and motivation are real high for today match against Bayern Munich. Let's look at Zenit St. Petersburg vS Bayern Munich. Zenit is playing very well at the moment and that's not good news for Bayern. For the first leg, Bayern can't beat Zenit and now with Zenit at home, is going to be even tougher for Bayern to win Zenit. One of the main reason is that the pinch and location in Moscow is not ideal for Bayern as condition is not as good as at home.I am going to repeat the same thing as last week here: By the way, they have drawn German club FC Nürnberg(2-2) and beaten Leverkusen(4-1) plus Villarreal CF, Olympique de Marseille to advance to this stage. These are major achievements to them. They are very motivated to prove that their poor domestic games does not stop them from winning or draw tough matches in UEFA Cup.
Zenit coach Advocaat spent six months coaching Bundesliga club VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach in the 2004/05 season before resigning. As such, he has experience on how to deal with German club play and this is why they drawn FC Nürnberg and beaten Leverkusen. This club also have very strong backup by Russia top tycoon.
The pitches in northern Russia are really bad this time of year, so field condition will be an issue for both squads. Zenit has been playing in this muck for over a month now (without much success, it must be said), so home field advantage/familiarity will be a plus factor for Zenit.
Nearly everyone is taking Munich but I want to be different and hopefully we will be rewarded. Is going to 50/50 match to me and I believe Zenit have the upper hand. As such, I believe Zenit (Black horse) will fight all the way to UEFA Cup final.
My prediction :
Take Zenit win 9 pts. -(Full time score Zenit 4-0 Won and Zenit will be the UEFA Cup Champions this year. Our first dark horse won !
Good Luck !
