Michael Owen has given his prediction for the upcoming match between Lille and Chelsea.
The two sides are set to face each other in the Champions League Round of 16 second leg on Wednesday.
In the first leg of the 1/8 finals, the Blues celebrated a 2 - 0 win over the opponents. This time Owen backs Thomas Tuchel's side to beat the rivals with a score of 1 - 0 and to advance to the quarter-finals of the European top tier.
"Chelsea are in the driving seat ahead of this one," the pundit said, via
Mirror.
"These types of matches are Thomas Tuchel’s bread and butter. Sit in, give nothing away, and when it comes to the point where Lille must throw everything forward, it’d be just typical that Chelsea nick one. It’s 1-0 to the Blues for me."
