Manchester United winger Nani warns Manchester City of a potential backlash after the Red Devils' 4-4 draw with Everton.

Nani has warned Manchester City that they will face an "angry" Manchester United when the two sides meet at the Etihad Stadium.

The Red Devils gave away a two-goal cushion late on during their 4-4 draw against Everton on Sunday to open up the Premier League title race.

City's 2-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers later that afternoon means that the two clash in a title showdown next Monday, with Nani anticipating a strong response from his side.

"There is anger from the players because we wanted to win [against Everton]," Nani told MUTV.

"We have to keep believing in our qualities because we still have a great opportunity to win the title. It's a huge game.

"It will be a difficult game, but if you want to win the league you cannot think about the atmosphere or the opponents. Of course [we can win]."

City boss Roberto Mancini earlier claimed that United are still favourites for the title.
