Zenit St Petersburg – Leipzig Europa League

Defeated 2 goals to 1 in the first leg in Germany, Zenit St. Petersburg can legitimately believe in his chances of qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Europa League. The Russian team, fifth in their league, shared the points on the Rostov field (0-0) recently but was probably in the 1/8 round of the second leg. Roberto Mancini’s protégés are formidable this season on the European stage at home, beating Real Sociedad (3-1), Rosenborg (3-1) and Celtic Glasgow (3-0). Leipzig, currently sixth in the Bundesliga, has been warned … Despite a series of 3 games without defeat (1 win and 2 draws), all competitions, the German club, held in check in Stuttgart (0-0) on weekends last, could sink in Russia. Leipzig has already lost in the warm atmosphere of Besiktas (2-0) and on the pitch of FC Porto (3-1) especially during his short epic in the Champions League.
