Anton Ferdinand has claimed that relegation-threatened Queens Park Rangers could cause an upset when they take on Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The R's gave their Premier League survival hopes a timely boost last weekend with a 2-1 win against Arsenal at Loftus Road.

Despite a daunting trip to the home of the champions, Ferdinand believes that his side can take something from the game.

"Of course, if someone offered me a point now, I'd take it all day long," he told The Mirror. "We know it's a difficult place to go but we have shown at Loftus Road that we are tough to beat and we have to take that mentality into the away games now.

"When it comes to a relegation battle, it is not about form, it's about mentality. As long as we keep it tight at the back, there's no reason why we can't unlock their defence at the other end."

United beat Rangers 2-0 in the reverse fixture at Loftus Road back in January.
