"They will narrowly edge it" - Michael Owen predicts the Arsenal v Crysal Palace clash

Michael Owen has predicted the Arsenal vs Crystal Palace clash with the advantage of the Gunners. Former Liverpool man is predicting that Mikel Arteta's side will claim a 2-1 victory over Palace in the London derby at the Emirates Stadium on Monday night.

“All credit to Mikel Arteta and Arsenal as they seem to have turned their season around,” Owen said.   “I don’t think the performances have been fantastic, but they badly needed wins and that’s now 10 points from 12. A win here and they can begin to start thinking about a top-six push.   “Palace have drawn their last two but showed loads of character to come back from two down to draw with Leicester last time. Vieira is doing a good job but still needs to claim a few more wins.   “I’m sure it’ll be a special day for Vieira to manage against Arsenal, I just don’t think his side will have enough quality. I think Arsenal will narrowly edge it. I’ll say 2-1.”

Arsenal have only won once in their last 6 games against with Patrick Vieira's men. And the Palace boss, Vieira, is set to visit his former home ground for the first time after so long.   Source - thesportreview Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
