Fergie pinpoints date with destiny

(17-01-2010) Sir Alex Ferguson has pinpointed Manchester United’s clash with Chelsea on 1 March as their date with destiny. Speaking after the Red Devils battling 0-0 draw with Tottenham on Sunday, the fiery Scot said the EPL title will be decided when they face champions Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. "We go to Chelsea on March 1 which will be a massive game and we have got to go to Blackpool who are in great form. It's going to be an exciting run-in, a real thrilling end to the season as five clubs are at the top. All five teams contesting the title have chances and it makes it interesting for neutrals.” United currently top the standings on goal difference from Manchester City, but have played two games less than their cross-town rivals. Arsenal are two points back, while Chelsea are seven points off the lead.
