Zenit will try to ease past Olympique de Marseille into UEFA Cup next round as they welcome the French side at Petrovsky stadium tonight.

Andrei Arshavin's late goal in Marseille a week ago keeps Zenit hopes of progress alive as they lost away game 1-3.

This result would boost Zenit play attacking football as they need to score at least two goals to find way back to the European campaign.

"I think we shouldn't blame selection problems and injury worries as the key factors for our loss in Marseille", said Konstantin Zyryanov to Sport Express.

"We should have played the way we are used to, however Olympique turned to be much stronger that Zenit both physically and tactically."
