Manchester derby: Owen predicts win for Man City

One of the most exciting match to look out for today in the premier league is between arch-rivals, Man City and Man Utd.

Man City will host Man Utd at Etihad stadium in what many predict to be a win for the Citizens.

This is because when it comes to playing wigg any of the top 6, the Red Devils have been unable to score any goal and the record is expected to remain intact today as well.

Ahead of the match, former football star, Michael Owen has dropped his prediction on the match.

Providing his predictions, Owen told BetVictor: “Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has come in for a bit of criticism in recent weeks due to his side’s under-par record against the top six. However, when you look at how United set up, it’s no real surprise. They simply don’t get to dictate the territory against these sides, and ultimately that can lead to a stalemate.”

Owen, however, stressed that the one side that will dominate possession is Man City.

According to him, the Citizens can’t play any other way as he expects them to pin Man Utd back from the outset.

“Ole will hope his side can utilise their excellent counter-attack, and I believe it’s likely they’ll score,” Owen added.

He went on to predict a 3-1 win in favour of Man City.
