Michael Ballack believes Pep Guardiola will lead Manchester City to the Premier League title in his debut season.

The Spaniard enjoyed a hugely impressive start to his career in England, winning his first six league matches [and ten in all competitions].

His unbeaten run ended last week when City crashed to a 2-0 defeat to Tottenham at White Hart Lane.

But Ballack insists City remain the 'team to beat' with Guardiola - a three-time title winner with both Barcelona and Bayern Munich - at the helm.
