Zenit Borussia Dortmund betting prediction
 Zenit |
|  Dortmund |
Betting suggestion:
The most likely scenario for this match will be the existence of several goals. Despite going through an irregular moment, the Dortmund club has more and better arguments compared to the "enemy" of this round, and so it is very likely that they will be able to score a goal. On the other hand, Zenit St Petersburg has a very interesting offensive sector, able to take advantage of the defensive difficulties of their opponent. Thus, it is interesting to risk in favor of the "Over 2.5 Goals" market in this game.
