He shared his thoughts on "Zenit's" championship prospects. According to Kalachyov, he has watched the recent games of "Zenit."
In his opinion, the team has not yet reached its optimal state and is just entering the season. Nevertheless, there are strong players in the team, and with this squad, "Zenit" can compete for the championship.
For reference, "Zenit" started the new season with a determined victory over "Rostov." The match ended with a score of 2:1.
