Burnley fullback Phil Bardsley rates former club Manchester United as title contenders.
The Clarets meet United in midweek.
Bardsley said, "It's good to see them back up there and challenging for titles and competing for silverware.
"It's nice to see United back in the title race and I hope they do go on to win it. It's fascinating this year, it's wide open, but hopefully they won't do anything against us and we can upset the apple-cart a little bit.
"I think United's form has been really good, Manchester City are coming into good form, Liverpool are outstanding, and then there's Chelsea and Tottenham.
"It'll be nice to see some old faces, but hopefully we can turn them over."
