Fixture Analysis
It is a Premier League clash, Regular Season - 13 as Krylia Sovetov welcome Zenit to Samara Arena. Kick-off is set for Monday 2 November 2026 at 15:00 UTC.
Form Guide
Krylia Sovetov — All Games: 2W 5D 3L from 10 Premier League outings this season, averaging 1.10 points per game. Last five: D W D D L. Offensively they are averaging 1.50 goals per game, with 1.70 conceded. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches — an extremely high rate that makes BTTS Yes a well-supported standalone angle from their form alone. This season is still relatively young for Krylia Sovetov, so this record blends games from this season and last.
In front of their own supporters this season, Krylia Sovetov have posted 4W 3D 3L at Samara Arena — 1.50 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.60 goals scored and 1.50 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Across all Premier League games this season, Zenit have recorded 7W 0D 3L from 10 outings — 2.10 PPG. Last five: L W W W W. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.00 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. This season is still relatively young for Zenit, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Zenit's away record: 8W 1D 1L from 10 road trips in Premier League this season (2.50 PPG). They are averaging 2.00 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. 6 away clean sheets from 10 games (60%) — they are as difficult to score against on the road as they are at home. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.
Form points away from home here. Zenit's 2.10 PPG return is 1.00 points per game ahead of Krylia Sovetov's 1.10 — the visitors are the form-based selection, and Double Chance is an alternative worth pricing if the outright looks tight.
Head to Head
Despite the anticipated home advantage, Zenit have the better historical record — 6 wins from 10 previous contests against 1 for Krylia Sovetov.
Goals have been a feature of this fixture. The last 10 meetings have averaged 3.4 per game — a rate that gives the Over 2.5 market a solid historical foundation. The most recent clash, on 4 Apr 2026, ended 1–2 with Zenit winning.
The H2H provides genuine backing for the away side. Zenit have won 6 of 10 previous encounters, and at 3.4 goals per game, the goals market also points upward. The away win and Over 2.5 combination has a historical case worth noting.
Trading Patterns
Krylia Sovetov in-play and half-time data (41 games, 21 at home): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 82% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 73% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 43% of games (home games).
Zenit in-play and half-time data (41 games, 21 at away): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 82% of the time; BTTS occurs in 43% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 48% of games (away games); they keep a clean sheet 46% of the time.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Krylia Sovetov 56% versus Zenit 49%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Krylia Sovetov 49% | Zenit 51%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Krylia Sovetov 1.14 xG and Zenit 2.24 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Krylia Sovetov attack 0.914 / defence 1.214 | Zenit attack 1.424 / defence 0.892. League average goals — home 1.402 / away 1.297. Zenit have an above-average attack strength of 1.424 — the away xG of 2.24 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 41 Krylia Sovetov games / 41 Zenit games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Krylia Sovetov 16% | Draw 24% | Zenit 60%. Fair-value odds: Krylia Sovetov 6.25 | Draw 4.17 | Zenit 1.67. The model has a clear lean to Zenit (60%) — a 44pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 66% | BTTS probability 63% | Total xG 3.39. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 66% — a total xG of 3.39 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 63% reflects that both xG figures (1.14 / 2.24) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Zenit are the pick at 60% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 24% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
The Poisson model projects 3.39 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 66% — strong confidence, supported by form averaging 2.9 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.4 goals per meeting.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 63% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Krylia Sovetov 80% | Zenit 30% BTTS from recent games.
