The matches with Zenit in 2018 will be hot. In the national championship of Russia, St. Petersburgers will have to play the most important fights with CSKA, Lokomotiv and Krasnodar. It depends on the results of these meetings whether Roberto Mancini's wards will be able to hope for the championship title. Another important front is the Europa League. White-blue-blue showed themselves excellently in the group stage of the UEL, but now the time is coming for the decisive playoff games. Will the team from St. Petersburg have enough resources to achieve success in two championships at the same time ?!

Schedule of Zenit matches in the season 2017 - 2018

The second half of the football season will begin for St. Petersburgers with a home meeting with the Scottish Celtic on February 15, 2018, and will end with a duel with SKA-Khabarovsk on May 13.

Zenit matches in the Europa League 2017/2018

Zenit played the group stage of the UEFA Europa League very confidently, so they deservedly made it to the playoffs of the European Cup. The draw brought Roberto Mancini's charges to Celtic. Petersburgers will play the first game with the Scots on February 15, 2018, and the second on February 22.

Celtic is a 48-time Scottish champion and has consistently won the national championship since 2012. The international successes of Glasgow FC are much more modest, almost all of them occurred in the second half of the 20th century. “Celts” once managed to excel in the European Champions Cup in 1967 and once again play in the final of the tournament. The Bhoys were also close to winning the 2002/03 UEFA League Cup. But in the final confrontation, the Scots lost to Porto.

The club from Northern Palmyra has not yet encountered the Celts. Of the Scottish teams, Zenit knows only the Glasgow Rangers - the rival of the St. Petersburg team in the 2007/08 UEFA League final that was victorious for them.

Zenit matches in the Russian Premier League 2017 - 2018

Before the start of the new edition of the Chechen Republic on football, experts in chorus predicted champion laurels for the St. Petersburg club. I must say, they had every reason for this. On the eve of the season, the white-blue-blue got a TOP coach and a lot of new expensive legionnaires, so they were rightfully considered the No. 1 contenders for the RFPL gold medals. However, the harsh realities of Russian football have made their own adjustments. Despite the coaching efforts of Roberto Mancini and the formidable names of newcomers, the team from Northern Palmyra still occupies the second line in the standings. From the first position, where Lokomotiv is located, the white-blue-blue are separated by 8 points.

In the second half of the 2017/18 Czech Republic, Zenit will not have time to swing. Too many lost points to allow yourself to relax. The games against CSKA, Krasnodar and Lokomotiv will be especially important. Even a single failure with these rivals can put an end to not only the championship prospects, but also getting into the top three!

Yesterday, at the general meeting of the RFPL clubs, the draft calendar for the 2017/18 season was approved. View it completely. The Championship analyzes the calendar and tells about the most important dates and events of the new season.

Russian clubs in European competition 2017/18: dates, rounds, possible opponents

We are studying all the rivals of our teams in the next European Cup season.

Khabarovsk

If for ordinary fans who had a chance to “break through” a long-distance exit, SKA-Khabarovsk's entry to the Premier League was joyful, then for clubs, especially those playing in European competitions, it was more of a headache. In the first round, Zenit will fly to the Far East, and in the third, on July 30, right between the qualifying matches of the Champions League qualifying round, CSKA will fly. General director of "army men" Roman Babaev has already stated that after the European Cup draw, adjustments to the calendar are possible. And "Spartak" plays with the Khabarovsk team away on August 27 - two weeks before the start of the Champions League group stage.

However, there is a chance that Khabarovsk fans will never see matches with top clubs at the Lenin Stadium. Head of the RFPL Sergey Pryadkin hinted that SKA could start the season at Arena Khimki due to the lack of compliance of the main stadium with the league's requirements.

Everything on H. Russian football rises from the bottom

Why Khabarovsk's entry into the Premier League is actually very cool.

Derby

The Premier League season opens and closes with the returning derbies of Spartak and Dynamo. It is interesting that it was the red and white ones who indirectly sent their eternal rivals to the FNL in the season before last. Nevertheless, the approximate dates for these matches were chosen quite well: July 16 and May 13.

What can not be said about the main derby of the country. If the first match at VEB-Arena will be played in the 6th round, approximately on August 13, then the second - in the last round before the break on December 10. Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors of "Spartak" that there is also a reserve date - February 20. Apparently, this match will be the second snow derby in the history of confrontation between these teams after the legendary game in 2002.

Another interesting point: Spartak will play all matches with direct competitors until the winter break. The derby with CSKA has already been mentioned above, the red-and-white will play against Zenit on August 6 and November 26, and against Krasnodar on July 30 and November 19.

For the first time in the Premier League, the St. Petersburg derby will be played. On "Petrovsky", where "Tosno" now owns, - already on July 30, in the third round, and on "Krestovsky" - in the 17th round, on November 19.

Winter

As in the past year, the schedule of winter tours also raises questions. For example, on November 26, Ural and Amkar play home matches in Yekaterinburg and Perm, respectively. Usually at this time of the year there is approximately "-15" and snow. In the 20th round, on December 10, these teams again play at home, while the southern Krasnodar and Anji are away.

Last round

If the fate of the championship is not decided before the last round, CSKA and Zenit will gain some advantage over their rivals, who will play at home with Anji and SKA, respectively. Spartak will go to visit Dynamo, and Krasnodar will host Rubin Kazan. Lokomotiv goes to Tula in the last round.

Zenit Kazan entered the 2018/19 season as the current owner of five trophies at once. To the usual victories in the championship, the Cup, the Russian Super Cup and the Champions League, the long-awaited success at the club world championship was added. The short-term format and the unusual style of play of opponents from other continents also affect.

On November 29, Zenit St. Petersburg will continue its march in Group C of the Europa League and will try to solve all the questions about reaching the next stage in the match with Danish Copenhagen at once. In September, the capital of Denmark turned out to be not very hospitable for the residents of St. Petersburg. The meeting is unlikely to be very productive due to the styles of play of both teams, and therefore the repetition of the first match in terms of the number of goals scored looks very plausible.

The schedule of Zenit matches in the 2018/2019 season is one of the most pressing topics for the fans of the St. Petersburg club! What does the calendar of Zenit games in the RPL championship look like? When will the blue-white-blue play their matches in the Europa League? The schedule of matches of football "Zenith" in the season 2018 - 2019 is very busy. The club will face the most important matches in the Russian Premier League, the Russian Cup and the Europa League. Petersburgers really missed big victories.

FC Zenit St. Petersburg will play at the Europa League group stage with Bordeaux, Copenhagen and Slavia, these are the results of today's draw. The not very impressive line-up of rivals suggests that the fans of the team can most likely plan a spring trip to the rival in the 1/16 finals of the LE.

Let us remind you that Zenit reached the group stage of the UEL 2018/2019 after defeating Dynamo Minsk and Molde from Norway in problem-free confrontations.

The results of the draw did not bring the St. Petersburg team any giants or difficult rivals, including because Zenit was seeded in the first basket along with Arsenal London, Chelsea, German Bayer, Lazio Roman and Spanish “Sevilla”, the most “league-European” club, perhaps.

So, in the 2018/2019 season, here are the rivals that will face Zenit in Group C:
- "Bordeaux" (Bordeaux, France);
- "Copenhagen" (Copenhagen, Denmark);
- "Slavia" (Prague, Czech Republic).

Schedule of Zenit matches in the Europa League 2018/2019

Zenit's Europa League matches will take place on 20 September, 4 October, 25 October, 8 November, 29 November and 13 December.

Round 1, September 20: Copenhagen - Zenit (away);
Round 2, October 4: Zenit - Slavia (away);
Round 3, October 25: Zenit - Bordeaux (away);
Round 4, November 8: Bordeaux - Zenit (home match);
Round 5, November 29: Zenit - Copenhagen (home match);
Round 6, December 13: Slavia - Zenit (home match).

It is obvious that such rivals are quite capable of the current Zenit.

True, the fans, it seems, are not yet very happy with what is happening in the team, despite the fact that it solves all the problems at the moment, and in the Russian Championship it is with a 100% result. At least, in response to the question of V., the former goalkeeper of Zenit, and now his deputy sports director, about "how do you like the group?", There were mainly exclamations about the need to strengthen the composition.
