Zenit

Zenit have now won the RPL title for the sixth season. The last season was a real nail-biter for Zenit. Krasnodar and Dinamo kept the pressure on the Petersburgers, and after the final round, the gap between the rivals was only one point. It's also worth mentioning that Zenit achieved the "golden double." They also succeeded in the Russian Cup, winning the trophy after defeating Baltika 2:1 in the final. Sergei Semak's team played three games before the Super Cup, winning two—5:2 over Sochi and 1:0 over Talleres—and losing one 1:2 against the Serbian team Crvena Zvezda.

Krasnodar

Krasnodar put up a strong performance in the RPL, securing the second spot. In the final round, they faced Dinamo Moscow and emerged victorious, a feat they also achieved in the first round. These wins played a significant role in their podium finish. Krasnodar and Zenit both held three control matches, winning all three: 1:0 over Kuban, 2:0 over Dinamo Makhachkala, and 3:2 against Rostov.

Expert Betting Tips

Zenit is the favorite going into the game, and we agree. Zenit had a mixed season at the end of the RPL, but they improved and took another league title. Krasnodar also had a great season but fell short of the top spot. In head-to-head matchups, the St. Petersburg club has not lost to Krasnodar in 12 games, with eight wins and four draws. Overall, Zenit will record their fifth Super Cup in a row.
