I can't say which is more common, but I consider feel a little more personal, including a greater likelihood that the speaker will be directly involved in the action. Let's see if other native speakers have the same reaction.

In my opinion, it depends on the subject. In a professional or academic setting I would seldom use "feel", but in a personal situation I would most often use "feel". The choice can depend, in part, on whether this is a personal desire to do something, or an observation about something beyond or apart from oneself. Do you have a sentence or context you would like us to review?
