Chelsea interim manager Rafael Benitez has refused to rule his side out of winning the Premier League title.

The Spaniard has now guided the Blues to two goalless draws in his first two matches following Wednesday's stalemate with Fulham at Stamford Bridge.

When asked if Chelsea could be crowned champions come May, Benitez told BBC Sport: "Why can't we? It's still a long way to go. We have to keep going. We'll have chances."

Wednesday's draw has left Chelsea seven points off the top of the Premier League table.
