Former Manchester United and Manchester City winger Andrei Kanchelskis is backing Chelsea to win tonight's Champions League final.

Despite his City ties, Kanchelskis says his connection to United is stronger and so he hopes Chelsea win.

He told Sport-Express: “I always say that there is no favourite in the finals. This is the Champions League final. We can see from the final match of the Europa League, where Manchester United lost on penalties, that it makes no sense to give preference to anyone.

"The odds are 50-50. Anything can be written on paper too. We can only guess. Of course, I will think about Chelsea. City are my enemies. There is only one team in Manchester - Manchester United. I have never seen or will see another team in it. Today we will be rooting for Chelsea!"
