The away leg of the UEFA cup round will, after all, be played on Zenit's home ground in St. Petersburg.
After the drawing, Russian media claimed that the match on 23 February would be played in Krasnodar by the Black Sea, due to expectations of seriously cold weather in St. Petersburg. But now Zenit has changed their mind, writes rbk.no.
Monday was the deadline for confirming the match site to UEFA, and St. Petrovsky Stadium was put down. Kickoff will be at 20:00 local Russian time (18:00 Norwegian time).
The home game, on 15 February, will start at 19:00.
