Former Russian national team player Igor Semshov shared his thoughts on who will compete with Zenit in the Premier League during the 2025/2026 season. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to Semshov, the main competitors of the "blue-white-blue" team are five teams. They are CSKA, Spartak, Krasnodar, Dynamo Moscow, and Lokomotiv.
Semshov stated that the competition will be a bit tougher for the "Railwaymen," even though they had a good result in the first match. They are expected to fight for a place in the top three, but the battle for the gold medals will be challenging.
Last season, the Russian champion was the Krasnodar team. This was their first championship title in history.
Zenit, on the other hand, finished in second place, missing out on victory by just one point. Previously, the Petersburg team had won the championship for six consecutive years.
The second round matches of the Russian Premier League will take place from July 25 to 27. In this round, teams will compete against each other and try to strengthen their position in the season.
Intense competition is expected to provide interesting games for the fans.
