Betting suggestion:
This confrontation brings to the field two teams that have some differences between them. RB Leipzig is a very young team with less than a decade of history but has been surprising all and making great campaigns in the last seasons of the German Championship, although at continental level has not yet achieved anything relevant. Zenit St Petersburg is a much older team and is among the largest in Russia and also has a decent continental record with a UEFA Europa League title and a UEFA Super Cup. The German team bets a lot on plays by the sides, deep balls and long-distance kicks, and for playing in its domains, it is the favorite to win this duel.
