Asmir Begovic: 'Opportunity for Manchester United result'

Stoke's Asmir Begovic feels that going to Old Trafford under no pressure could give his side the chance of a surprise result against Manchester United.

Stoke City goalkeeper Asmir Begovic has said that his side could have an opportunity to grab a result against Manchester United this weekend by going into the game with no pressure.

Stoke have found goals hard to come by of late under new boss Mark Hughes, although United have also been struggling for results under the guidance of their new manager David Moyes.

"It will be difficult, just as it always is at Manchester United, but they have had a couple of slip-ups already this season, and being able to go there with no pressure could give us an opportunity of getting a result ourselves," the keeper told Stoke's official club website.

Stoke face United at Old Trafford on Saturday with the Red Devils reeling from conceding a late equaliser against Southampton last weekend.
