Back Over 3.5 Goals @ 2.447/5 in Zenit St Petersburg v FC Khimki

Tobias Gourlay's looking forward to an explosive encounter at the Gazprom Arena this evening

In the south of France yesterday, Marseille were too hot for Dijon and Kev's handicap bet cut the mustard. He gets a week off to spend the money unwisely as we head east for a Russian Premier League game this evening.

Zenit St Petersburg are top of the table and the league's top scorers. At their own Gazprom Arena, the reigning champs are W10-D1-L1 having struck 39 times across those 12 games. In total, there have been 51 match goals (4.25 goals a game) as the hosts have managed just a couple of clean sheets. All 12 matches have delivered Over 2.5 Goals individually, with 10/12 getting to Over 3.5 Goals.

Promoted FC Khimki picked up just three points from the first eight rounds of this season. Then they changed coach and have gone W10-D2-L3 since then. Props to new boss Igor Cherevchenko. They've scored at least once on 9/11 road trips and at least twice on 4/5 just recently. We're backing them to help get today's game to Over 3.5 Goals.
