Sports 22:18, 2-08-2025

Famous former football player Dmitriy Radchenko compared the popularity of the “Spartak” and “Zenit” teams. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to him, in the past, “Spartak” was undoubtedly the most popular club. Even now, Radchenko believes that the “red-whites” are slightly ahead of “Zenit”.

He discussed this in an interview with Sport-Ekspress. The expert emphasized that the popularity of the capital club is mainly related to “Spartak” being a leader in the former Soviet Union and later in the Russian championships.

Currently, “Zenit” has only started to be recognized as a strong team since the mid-1980s. In the next round, the “red-whites” will face “Akron” away.

Meanwhile, “Zenit” will host Moscow's CSKA at home. Both matches will take place on Sunday.

Thus, the rivalry between the two clubs and their level of popularity will once again be in the spotlight of football fans.
