Michael Owen makes Liverpool top four prediction ahead of "lovely run-in"

Former Liverpool striker Michael Owen believes a run of wins between now and the end of the season would see the Reds secure an unlikely top four finish.

Owen isn't convinced his old club are capable of the consistency required, though. Monday's 6-1 win at Leeds was just their fourth win in 16 away league games, and Jurgen Klopp's side have dropped points against teams in the lower reaches of the table.

Liverpool sit eighth in the table with eight games remaining, some nine points adrift of Newcastle in fourth. None of their remaining games see them take on top-four opponents, though, giving some fans a glimmer of hope despite meetings with Spurs and Aston Villa on the horizon.
