Newcastle United striker Leon Best has said that Chelsea will not win the Premier League this season ahead of their showdown at the Sports Direct Arena this weekend.

The Blues have won three of their last nine games across all competitions and are ten points adrift of leaders Manchester City in the Premier League. Meanwhile, Newcastle are one point ahead of them in fourth place and could extend that gap with a win at home this afternoon.

"They will be wary of us," Best told The Sun. "I think it's a case of their big players perhaps not being as big for them in the dressing room right now.

"Something isn't right with them. They are not gelling and I think they know they aren't going to win the league, as well as not doing great in Europe.

"They are all uneasy and no-one knows what is happening. I think a few of them are upset and there is everything that is going on with John Terry at the moment."

The Blues, who beat Wolves last weekend, have not won two Premier League games in a row since the first half of October.
