Super Eagles legend Sunday Oliseh makes a winning prediction for the match between Manchester City and Arsenal, Soccernet.ng reports.
Mikel Arteta and the Arsenal team seem to have pleased Oliseh, who had previously issued a warning to them over their title pursuit.
However, he said on his social media feed that the squad that enjoys playing ball possession and is motivated to win the match would prevail.
Meanwhile, with Manchester City behind Arsenal in the English Premier League rankings with 90 points and Arsenal leading with 91 points, the game later this evening is expected to determine the league champion.
When Pep Guardiola’s team hosts the Gunners at the Etihad Stadium, they will aim to reduce Arsenal’s lead in the standings to just two points after seeming unstoppable in their last few games.
The Arsenal team, on the other hand, overcame a two-goal deficit to share the victory with Southampton, but they are anticipated to have even harder challenges when facing Guardiola’s troops.
With this, Oliseh, in a video shared on his Twitter page, revealed that a side that enjoys possession of the ball and is determined to win would prevail in the encounter.
“I want to hear your comment, but like I always do, and still thank my followers on this platform. Be civil when you are writing against one another. It is not a war. Remember, it is a friendly war. It is a football war.” he cautioned.
The ex-Borussia Dortmund player added, “My Predictions? The team that plays ball possession, that is focused on winning the game, that likes to hold the ball will win. And that is what I feel. But, the only problem with my prediction is that both teams play like this”
