Michael Owen makes a prediction ahead of Barcelona vs Liverpool

Former Liverpool star Michael Owen makes a prediction ahead of Barcelona clash against Liverpool. Barcelona and last season's runners-up Liverpool will go head-to-head in the Champions League semi-finals at Camp Nou on Wednesday, May 1. "​Barcelona retained their La Liga title when they beat Levante at the Camp Nou on Saturday, but I feel they will struggle to cope with the pace and power of Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah midweek," Owen told ​Metro. "I expect the Reds to get a draw from another entertaining tie. "Lionel Messi has scored 24 goals in 32 Champions League games against Premier League opposition, but he has failed to score in his two previous games against ​Liverpool. "Messi showed against ​Manchester United in the quarter-final 2nd leg that he remains at the very top of his game. How Liverpool cope with the little magician might be the key to the tie."
