Game Analysis
This looks to be an excellent match up and the holders Sevilla are slightly fortunate to be coming into this tie with a lead, after scoring a late winner in Sevilla last Thursday. Here they are coming up against a Zenit side who also won the competition back in 2008.
When looking at the game my ratings suggest that there is no real value in the goal line but given both sides recent domestic form and the state of the game, my leaning would certainly be towards overs. My ratings also suggest value with the home side. Zenit have an excellent home record although it has to be said their home record in the Champions League is not outstanding especially when facing the more established sides. However when it comes to the Europa Cup, since 2000 they have played 33 ties and only lost once and that was against Bayer Leverkusen in 2008. Here there looks to be some decent risk v reward backing Zenit on the -0.0/0.5 handicap.
My recommended trade is Zenit - 0.0/0.5 goals at around 2.00.
