“This one could be tight"- Michael Owen states his prediction for Leicester City v Manchester United

Michael Owen predicts that Leicester City will hold Manchester United to a 1-1 draw at the King Power Stadium on Boxing Day. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side caused talk of a title challenge after Manchester United were 6-2 winners against Leeds United at Old Trafford last weekend. The Red Devils have won five of their last six Premier League games to find winning momentum at a crucial point of the campaign. On the other hand, Leicester, were impressive 2-0 winners against Tottenham Hotspur last weekend thanks to Jamie Vardy’s penalty and Toby Alderweireld’s own goal. The Foxes have lost five of their 14 games in the Premier League this season, suffering four defeats at the King Power Stadium. But, former Red Devils striker Owen is predicting that Leicester will secure a 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Boxing Day. “It’s fair to say that Manchester United’s season has come alive in recent weeks,” he said. “The Red Devils are up to third and if they win their game in hand, they’ll go second. “It’s been quite the turnaround for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men and they should arrive here full of confidence, aiming for an 11th win in a row on the road in the Premier League. “Leicester put their home defeat to Everton behind them with a fantastic away result at Tottenham, and for all they have been a bit inconsistent this season, they will be delighted with their second place in the table just now. “This one could be tight. I don’t think there is much between the sides and I reckon a draw could be the outcome with both sides scoring.” Source- The Sport Review Join us on Telegram!
