Strategist Roberto Mancini identified a London club as one of the most realistic contenders to win the English Premier League.
On Monday, this team will play a national championship match at Stamford Bridge stadium.
"I think they can win the championship," Mancini said. "They have 10 points less than us, but we still have mutual battles and 24 rounds ahead of us.
The English Premier League is very difficult. Moreover, in the next few months, teams will have to play every three days, so it will not be easy to handle such a period."
The Italian also praised Chelsea's strategist Andre Villas Boas: "Over the past year, he has proven to be a good coach. He did well with Porto, so Chelsea was lucky."
