Michael Owen predicts results of Man United vs Brighton, Arsenal vs Liverpool, others

 

Michael Owen, a former Real Madrid striker, has predicted Manchester United to beat Brighton when both teams clash in the Premier League on Sunday night at Old Trafford. Owen also predicted Arsenal and Liverpool to play a draw at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday night.

According to him, Chelsea will defeat West Brom on Saturday at Stamford Bridge, while Manchester City will beat Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

Providing his predictions, Owen told BetVictor, “If you were to have offered Ole Gunnar Solskjaer second spot in the Premier League this time last year, I’m pretty sure he’d have bitten your hand off.

“A lot of that goes down to the Red Devils magnificent away form, although they’ve definitely made improvements at home as well.

“Brighton have looked good on the eye on occasion this season. However, they’ve simply not put enough points on the board.

“The Seagulls like to play on the front foot, and if they have a go at United here, I think the hosts could pick them off on the counter. It’s 1-0 for United for me. Manchester United 1, Brighton 0.”

On the Leicester City vs Manchester City game, Owen said, “There is just no stopping Manchester City. The Citizens are flying, and unbelievably, still have a huge chance of winning all before them.

“First, however, they must overcome a Leicester side that won at the Etihad earlier in the season. On that occasion, Leicester executed their counter-attacking game plan perfectly in a 5-2 win.

“That said, City’s run of form has been magnificent. They’ve won 17 of their last 18 Premier League matches, and I just can’t see past them winning again in this one. Leicester City 1, Manchester City 2.”

Speaking on the Chelsea vs West Brom match, Owen said, “Fresh from his Manager of the Month award, Thomas Tuchel has his eyes on not only a top-four finish but potential Champions League glory.

“However, first, the German tactician must overcome West Brom at Stamford Bridge.

“The Baggies Premier League season is petering out after losing far too much ground in their fight against the drop. Chelsea’s position couldn’t be more different, and with everything to play for, the wind is very much in their sails.

“All in all, I simply can’t see anything other than a comfortable win for the Blues against a beleaguered Baggies side. Chelsea 3, West Brom 0.”

Commenting on the Arsenal vs Liverpool fixture, Owen said, “Arguably, the game of the weekend is at the Emirates on Saturday night. These two have played out some crackers in the past, but with both going into this, having endured indifferent seasons by their standards, there’s a likelihood that we could see a tighter match.

“Prior to the international break, Liverpool notched up successive wins. However, that was as many as they achieved in their previous eight matches combined.

“Successive wins are something Arsenal haven’t done in the league since January, and although Liverpool are showing signs of a potential return to form, I can’t say I’m confident siding with either side.

“With that in mind, I’m going for a 1-1 draw.”

The kick-off time for Man United vs Brighton is 7.30 pm, while that of Arsenal vs Liverpool is 8 pm, Leicester City vs Man City is 5.30 pm and Chelsea vs West Brom is 12.30 pm.

Nnamdi Kanu Sends Important Message To IPOB Members From Detention

    The detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has sent an important message to his followers over the Biafra movement. The embattled separatist according to one of his brothers, Prince Kanu Meme, has asked his disciples to trust and comply with directives from the Directorate of State (DOS). Boasting his belief in the separatist movement’s administrative structure, Kanu said “I’m DOS and DOS is me”.  Naija News understands that the DOS, headed by diaspora-based Chika Edoziem has been contending with authority issues since Kanu’s arrest in Kenya in June 2021. It has been observed that IPOB is in disintegration following Nnamdi Kanu’s rearrest and detention. The present situation of the Biafran movement can be likened to that of sheep without a shepherd. However, Kanu in a conversation with his sib...

IPOB: The Nigerian Civil War, commonly known as the Biafran War

  THE HISTORY OF BIAFRA AND NIGERIA WAR  Israel, Nigeria and the Biafra civil war    The Nigerian Civil War , commonly known as the Biafran War (6 July 1967 – 15 January 1970), was a war fought between the government of Nigeria and the secessionist state of Biafra. Biafra represented nationalist aspirations of the Igbo people, whose leadership felt they could no longer coexist with the Northern-dominated federal government. The conflict resulted from political, economic, ethnic, cultural and religious tensions which preceded Britain's formal decolonization of Nigeria from 1960 to 1963. Immediate causes of the war in 1966 included a military coup, a counter-coup and persecution of Igbo living in Northern Nigeria. Control over the lucrative oil production in the Niger Delta played a vital strategic role. Within a year, the Federal Government troops surrounded Biafra, capturing coastal oil facilities and the city of Port Harcourt. The blockade imp...
