A former player of the Russian national team and now a football expert, Igor Korneev shared his thoughts on the championship race for the upcoming Premier League season. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, the "Zenit" team is the main favorite and they can only lose to themselves. "Zenit" is considered a highly attacking team capable of scoring many goals.
The addition of Jerson was seen as a strengthening. In the 2024/2025 Russian championship, the St. Petersburg team finished the competition in second place and missed the opportunity for the championship to "Krasnodar."
In the first round of the new season, the "Zenit" team, led by Sergey Semak, will host the "Rostov" team at home. The match will take place on July 20, Sunday.
In this game, "Zenit" fans are expecting the team to showcase its potential for the new season. The Premier League season is expected to be highly competitive, and the rivalry between teams will be exciting.
The new season promises many thrilling moments for football enthusiasts.
