ZENIT ST PETERSBURG vs BAYERN MUNICH (UEFA CUP)

<3.60> <3.15> <1.87>

i thought bayern would have won the home leg of this match last week, but zenit continued to surprise, coming back with a fortunate 1-1 draw. this time though, zenit miss andrey arshavin, their key playmaker, along with fernando ricksen and radek sirl, all through suspension. luca toni comes back, which is a major plus for bayern, and i just think the weekend win against stuttgrt served two purposes: 1) allows bayern to concentrate on the uefa cup 2) gives them a major morale boost. however, do not go too heavy into this match, because zenit have recently been warned by the russian FA about the condition of the pitch, which is terrible. this would definitely favour the home team a little, as they are familiar with such a situation.

- Eddy's prediction: $5 on bayern @ 1.85 = $9.35
