QPR defender Anton Ferdinand has stated that his side will go to Old Trafford to try and cause an upset against Manchester United on Sunday.
The Loftus Road club are submerged in a relegation battle to stay in the Premier League, and are overwhelming underdogs against the champions this weekend.
However, Ferdinand tasted success at Old Trafford with former club West Ham in 2007, and is hopeful of the same this time round.
“One of the highlights of my career was going there with West Ham and beating them to stay in the Premier League,” he told Mirror Football.
“It was fantastic. We defended for our lives – not many people keep a clean sheet there, let alone win the game. Results like that show it can be done.
“Of course, if someone offered me a point [from Sunday’s game] now, I’d take it all day long. 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,” he concluded.
