Michael Owen makes prediction for Manchester City v Shakhtar Donetsk

Former English player Michael Owen thinks Manchester City will be the winning side of the Champions League fixture against Shakhtar Donetsk. The Citizens are leading the Champions League Group C, having 3 wins, 2 draw and no losses this season. Meanwhile, Shakhtar are the second with their 1 victory, 2 draws and 1 loss. Speaking on the upcoming match, Owen has predicted City's victory over the Ukrainian side. He said (via MEN): "Manchester City did well to come from a goal down to beat a young and progressive Chelsea side at the Etihad on Saturday. I expect the Premier League champions to follow up their 3-0 win in Kharkiv on Matchday one with another fluent success against the Ukrainians. A win would guarantee City’s place in top spot in the group, although Shakhtar have much to play for themselves given they currently sit second. Another comfortable European night for Pep Guardiola’s side". The Blues are going to face their Champions League rivals at Etihad tonight.
