Predicting the top four this season will definitely be a difficult one to make.

Liverpool legend Michael Owen has admitted that it’s a tough one to make, as there are six teams capable of finishing in a Champions League place.

Owen backed Man City and Arsenal to make it, and believes Chelsea should as well. However, he couldn’t pick between Liverpool and Tottenham, but ended up backing Spurs and Manchester United to miss out.

He said: “Well, it is tough to call the top four. Manchester City for sure. I think Chelsea are probably going to be in the top four. Arsenal as well. It’s very hard to leave one out, isn’t it?

“I’m actually torn between Liverpool and Tottenham at the moment. I’m going to say Liverpool, but how can you leave Tottenham out of the top four when they are playing particularly well as well?

“Manchester United, they’ve got a good chance. But there’s going to be a massive team that everybody would expect to be in the top four that are going to miss out this year.

“I do think Liverpool are still right up there among the elite. I think that even though Arsenal had a good start to the season and Liverpool are maybe ten points or so behind them, I still think that Manchester City and Liverpool are the top two teams in Europe for that matter.

“So it’s so hard to say. I’ll probably say Tottenham and Manchester United will miss out.”
