Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has not given up hope of beating Manchester City to the Premier League title.

City make the weekend trip to the Sports Direct Arena to take on a Magpies side brimming with confidence and chasing a potential Champions League place.

Ferguson warned City that they face a massive task keeping the home side quiet.

Ferguson said: "By the time we kick off we'll know what we'll need to do.

“Newcastle are fighting for that position in the top four. They have a chance. It's an exciting end to the season.

"The challenge for City is to win at Newcastle and Newcastle are playing very well. They've lost 4-0 at Wigan, but galvanised themselves to win at Chelsea last night. Their form is good and it won't be an easy game for City.

"We'll be aware of the game going on before ours. You can't avoid it. We still have to prepare for our game, though. We won't neglect our preparation for our game."
