Michael Owen’s predictions
Former Liverpool striker has predicted the Reds to beat Villareal 2-0 at Anfield tomorrow night in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final.
“It wasn’t the prettiest of games, but Liverpool’s win over Everton was a massive win,” Owen said to BetVictor. “I actually think that will be a good warm-up game for this, Villareal will play a very similar way to Everton. They’ll sit deep and try to frustrate Liverpool.
Villareal are very organised, and in Emery, have a coach who excels in cup competitions. They’re dangerous on the break, and the likes of Danjuma are a threat.
I still think Liverpool will do enough to get the win, don’t rule out more Origi heroics! 2-0 Liverpool.”
