Man Utd's Berbatov admits he enjoys facing Chelsea

Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov admits he has a good record against today's opponents Chelsea.

His record of four goals in 10 encounters includes a penalty for Tottenham during the 2008 Carling Cup final as the White Hart Lane club went on to lift the trophy.

In an ideal world, Berbatov's run would continue. But the Bulgarian admits he would take a single goal from a defender right now if it meant United could head back to the north-west clutching those precious three points.

"I scored plenty of times against them with Tottenham, now I want to continue with Manchester United," he said.

"I would be glad to score a couple against them tomorrow but it is not about one player.

"If it was 1-0 and Nemanja Vidic or Patrice Evra got the goal it would be just as good because we would be taking the three points home and we would be above them again."
