Michael Owen: Chelsea favourites to win EPL

Former Liverpool and Manchester United player Michael Owen has ignored his former clubs to tip Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea to win the English Premier League which begins on Saturday, August 17.

Michael Owen who scored 163 goals in 362 club games for Liverpool, Real Madrid, Newcastle United, Manchester United and Stoke City wrote in a column for Daily Mail:
“Chelsea are my favourites to win the league irrespective of transfer activity. The return of Jose Mourinho has transformed the atmosphere at Stamford Bridge.

“Mourinho has never lost a home game in the Premier League and the ‘Special One’ thoroughly deserves his self-appointed title.”

The Englishman said about Manchester United with whom he won his first Premier League trophy:
“While United have the most stable squad, the club as a whole is going through a period of transition both in terms of manager and backroom staff.

“Much will depend on the form of Robin van Persie and if he hits the heights of last season, United can definitely expect to be in the running.”
