Antonio Conte led Chelsea to the Premier League title in his debut season in charge of Chelsea and the Italian overcame all odds to lead Chelsea to the title in just his first season in England.

Not many tipped Chelsea to win the league last season and already many believe the title will go to either of the Manchester clubs this season because how they have strengthened their team.

Two days ago, Gary Neville told Sky Sports that Manchester United and Manchester City are favourites for the title. But Michael Owen who has learnt from his mistakes of underrating Chelsea last season has tipped Chelsea to win the Premier League.

Speaking to Mirror Football, the ex-England international admitted that Chelsea are the team to beat. He said: “Chelsea are the team to beat after they won the league comfortably last year, they will spend money again and improve.

“Everyone will try to attack them, but I think there are question marks around teams, and I don’t think there are many around Chelsea at the moment.”
