Zenit is playing with Arshavin and Pogrebnyak, the latter just recovered from an injury. Pretty strong team, but with the crisis in the club things aint going well, especially in the Russian Premier League. It'll be an interesting match, my gut feeling says ManU should win this one, but who knows. Not playing it, just will be watching the game in the sportsbar! Gun-to-my-head-play would be the Under, Im ice-cold though, so its just an opinion. GL whatever you pick :toast:
Forgot to post, that Danny, the most expensive player in the RPL (30m Euro) is also starting today. Zenit is playing 4-1-3-2, with Ziryanov shadowing Arshavin and Pogrebnyak, he's a easy-scoring player on the Russian side. Nani will be covered by Anyukov, who's a RB, but also has great offensive efforts. Only thing Im afraid of, is a goal from a set piece, with some strong headers in the ManU team. Especially when Malafeev is not the strongest GK when it comes to such plays...
Manchester fielding all their starters today (minus Ronaldo, of course, who is injured) Have you seen Zenit play this year? They haven't been great either, they are struggling. Arashavin is benched as it looks like he is being shipped out soon. Zenit is a different team without Arashavin. They will struggle today IMO.
I will tell you one more thing..might find it superstitious but what the hell.
In my local here the lines on that game are as follows;Man Utd 1.50(-200),Draw 3.00(+200) and Zenith @ 4.00(+300), Out of 10 matches set with that kind of line 9 end with favorite not getting job done within 90 mins,when i saw they set the line that way i got the message once again and for that juice wont back Utd way they been playing so far this season.draw would have been my pick for 90 mins since with that kind of line is the most common outcome i have seen,anyhow best of luck to you.
Was good game to watch the last 60 minutes and after the 2nd Russian goal Utd started to play much better,Russiand substitutions after 2nd goal were not really good ones and that was not far of ending tied,the bottom line tho is again ,that with that kind of line i posted above i know not to back the favorite,rarely ever works and again it didn't,that line posted for me is always a trap,a sucker bet.better luck with your next one.
