Former Manchester United and Liverpool striker Michael Owen has made predictions over Arsenal and Chelsea’s upcoming Premier League games. Arsenal will travel to Bramall Lane to face Sheffield United while Chelsea will host Newcastle United this weekend.
Owen showered praise on Sheffield United saying they were unlucky to notch a draw against Liverpool at the end of the last month. He has backed the Blades to take points off the Gunners in a draw.
Speaking to BetVictor, Owen said: “Sheffield United have failed to score in their last three games in all competitions but they were, arguably, unlucky not to pick up a point against Liverpool in their last home game.”
“Arsenal have only conceded once in their last four games in all competitions, but I would not be surprised if the Gunners had to settle for a point at Bramall Lane on Monday. ‘Chris Wilder’s side have not lost by more than one goal in the league so far this campaign and I think they will get a draw against the Gunners.”
“Newcastle were outstanding against a poor Manchester United side at St James’ Park in their last game and thoroughly deserved the points, although I think they will do well to keep this exciting young Chelsea side at arm’s length at Stamford Bridge,” he said.
“Chelsea have won their last four games in all competitions and look full of goals at present. ‘Frank Lampard’s side have come a long way in a short space of time since their heavy opening-weekend defeat at Old Trafford.”
