Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti is on the brink of winning the Premier League in his first season in English football and says it will be a tragedy if his club fails to beat Wigan at home on Sunday to enable Manchester United to claim the title. Defending champion Man United, trying to become the first club in English football history to win the title for the fourth time in a row, trails leader Chelsea by a point but will be confident of beating Stoke at Old Trafford.

Ancelotti says Chelsea deserves to finish top and it would be a disaster if his players slipped up after 10 months of doing "a fantastic job."
