Florent Malouda believes that Chelsea have "no choice" but to beat Manchester United this weekend, to take a five-point lead at the zenith of the Premier League.
The west London club have a two-point buffer over Sir Alex Ferguson's men, and a draw will suffice if they are to retain the lead in the title race.
However, Malouda insists that Carlo Ancelotti's Blues will be looking for a win at Stamford Bridge.
"We have no choice, we have to win because we are two points in front and we want to stay in front," said the French winger, according to the club's official website.
"It's going to be a big, big, big game and we have to play at our best level in front of our fans.
"'We have a [good] home record and we're trying to keep it. Before the international break it would be a good result to win at home.
"To be five points clear would be a good thing for us, we have never been five in front for a long time."
The 29-year-old went on to explain that he does not concern himself with the results of the Old Trafford outfit, since he remains satisfied as long as Chelsea continue to notch up victories week after week.
"I think about our team and I'm not looking too much at the results of Man U," he said.
"At the moment we are on top and if we keep on going like this and playing like we are we won't be far [from the Premier League title], but nobody can say who is going to win this title."
