THE PREDICTION
The Russian Premier League has not yet been suspended but could be at any stage due to the ongoing Russian invasion and attempted occupation of Ukraine. The Ukrainian Premier League has been suspended but Russian domestic football continues in quite surreal and, frankly, uncomfortable circumstances. Bear in mind the potentially imminent suspension of the league. Sochi come into this on the back of a 3-2 defeat at home to Krylya Sovetov in their most recent outing, prior to the international break. The hosts remain just inside the top four and the European spots. They now come up against the reigning champions, Zenit Saint-Petersburg, that have won three of their last four matches and they are unbeaten in their last 11 matches as they sit firmly at the top-of-the-table. Zenit will come into this as the relatively comfortable favourites, despite the impressive campaign as Sochi.
