Roy Keane has backed Chelsea to prevent Manchester United from claiming the Premier League title this season.
The former United skipper has a 'gut feeling' the Blues will lift the title
although the possible acquisition of Dimitar Berbatov could sway him.
Sunderland manager Keane said: 'For me, it's Chelsea this year.
'I always felt that United would do it last year but I fancy Chelsea this
time.
'There's no African Cup of Nations in January, they've got a new manager,
they've bought one or two players and, for all the ups and downs, last year they
still nearly nicked it.
'If United get a top striker in then they've got a chance.
'But my gut feeling this year would still be Chelsea.'
