Chance is Manfred Mann's Earth Band's tenth album, released in 1980.

The album cover art was an adaptation of Danish artist Ole Kortzau's poster "Strandstole" (deck chairs).

The album marked the temporary return of guitarist and founding member Mick Rogers to the band.

John Lingwood replaced drummer Geoff Britton, who left due to illness.

Although Chris Thompson only appeared as a guest vocalist (having officially left the band after Angel Station), he was onboard again for the accompanying tour.
