On December 8, the match of the last round of the Champions League group stage will take place, in which Russian Zenit will play at home with English Chelsea. The forecast for this match is given by the well-known in the past midfielder of the Spanish "Celta" and the Russian national team Alexander Mostovoy.
Zenit started the current tournament with dignity, with a decent game losing to Chelsea in London (0:1), after which they defeated Malmo at home (4:0). But this was only enough to secure an early exit to the Europa League, because Juventus lost both matches, and in the last round they barely managed to escape from an away defeat with Malmo.
Chelsea, after a home victory over Zenit, lost away to Juventus, which is why they remained in second place in the group for a long time. But in the last round, Thomas Tuchel's team managed to defeat the "old signora" at home (4:0), thanks to which she came out on top in additional indicators. But in the Premier League, the Blues slipped to third place due to last weekend's defeat by West Ham (2:3).
Alexander Mostovoy expects bright and productive football from this match. Zenit has nothing to fear anymore, so you can play safely. But the expert still believes that the victory will be achieved by a more tournament-motivated Chelsea.
