ZEN vs ZAL Dream11 Match Prediction

ZEN vs ZAL Dream11: Zenit Saint Petersburg will look to return to winning ways when they play hosts to Zakliris Kaunas in EuroLeague round028 match at Yubileyny Sports Palace on Thursday night (IST). Zenit are almost on the brink of playoff exit after losing 86-78 against CSKA Moscow in the last round, and though that result was expected, considering the gulf between the teams, for a roster that Zenit have, a lot was expected from them this season. Mathematically, they are still in the race, but it’s almost impossible now, after all, they must overcome a five-game deficit in the last seven rounds. Something that is too much for this team this season.
Zalgiris Kaunas, on the other hand, have no such issues this season, for they are 8th on the points table heading into this match, and arrive in this game on the back of three straight wins in EuroLeague, last winning 96-85 against BCK Khimki. That said, they are one of four teams on 12 wins and know a defeat will take them down on the points table. So they are certainly hard-pressed for a win as well.

ZEN vs ZAL Match Prediction: Grand League tips:

• Zalgiris Kaunas‘ Zach LeDay is definitely a very good option. He is their leading scorer this season, and more often than not, he ends with the team’s best effort. Perhaps the safest option in Dream11 Small League competitions.
• Players such as Edgaras Ulanovas and Arturas Milaknis are also clocking significant minutes and are in good form as well. They should be on your team regardless of the competition you are playing in.
• Zalgiris‘ K. C. Rivers offers a very good value, and so does the likes of Nigel Hayes and Lukas Lekavicius.
• From Zenit Saint Petersburg, Austin Hollins is a very safe option. On current form, he is one of the best players in this team. He erupted for a team-high 28 points in the last match.
