Zenit St Petersburg vs Benfica Prediction
Why we picked this for Zenit St Petersburg vs Benfica
Our pick for Zenit St Petersburg vs Benfica in Champions League is Under 2.5 goals, with 96% confidence. Recent form: 3 of Zenit St Petersburg's last 5 games went over 2.5 goals (3.0 goals per game in total), against 3 of 5 for Benfica (2.6 per game). Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 4 of the 10 recent games went under 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Under 2.5.
The two sides haven't met recently, so head-to-head history plays no part in this call. At 96%, most of the recent evidence lands on this side of the line, which makes it one of our stronger calls. Final score: 3-1. The pick lost.
