Michael Owen makes prediction about Leicester v Chelsea

Michael Owen is backing Leicester City to hold Chelsea to a draw at the King Power Stadium on Monday night.

Jose Mourinho’s men head into the game looking to return to winning ways in the top flight after the disappointment of their shock home defeat by Bournemouth last weekend.

Chelsea are currently languishing just above the relegation zone after a disastrous start to their Premier League title defence, with the Blues having lost eight of their opening 15 games in the top flight.

Leicester, meanwhile, are flying high and would return to the top of the Premier League table should they beat Chelsea on Monday night.

However, former Liverpool and Manchester United forward Owen believes that a draw is the most likely result.

Owen backed the draw as his chosen result on BetVictor and wrote:
