Saturday 12 November, Luzhniki Stadium, Moscow

Goals: Zenit – Malcom (70), Claudinho (81)
Man of the Match: Claudinho (Zenit)

Meeting of RPL leaders and outsiders reminded their first leg in St. Petersburg, when two late goals from former Torpedo Ivan Sergeev and Malcom brought Zenit three points. Claudinho became the key factor in Moscow after entering the pitch in the second half. He provided Malcom with assist, and number 10 scored his goal number 12 in the season. Later Claudinho finished the attack with goal himself and helped Zenit to recover from last-week defeat by Akhmat. Meanwhile Torpedo in five games under Andrey Talalaev did not earn neither goals nor points.

Zenit stay first with 42 points, while Torpedo remain bottom on 6 points.
