UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE ....


ZENIT ST PETERSBURG - JUVENTUS

Fairly simple for Zenit, beat Juventus and set up a decider in Madrid, where a win would see them qualify for the knock out stage of the competition. Juve have already qualified followed two wins over Real and are set to rest virtually their entire starting eleven. No doubt the "b" team will be out to impress, but it is unlikely they will take too many chances, in conditions forecast to be several degrees below freezing.

Zenit should never be in this position and could easily have earned more points, from each of their three opening group game's. However, they still have their fate in their own hands and I expect this very talented team, strong in every position,to win the game. Unfortunately, most of the value has gone in the straight win, so I will chance a little on them also leading at the break. Something they have done in 5 of their 8 wins, in their UEFA Cup and Champions League campaigns over the last two seasons.

4 points HT/FT Zenit-Zenit 3.20 Stan James/ Corals/ Betfair

Good luck.
