Edin Dzeko expects Manchester United to drop points

Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko believes that fierce rivals Manchester United will slip in their hunt for the Premier League title.

The Red Devils dropped to a five-point lead over the current holders following a 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, while City clinched a 2-0 win over Fulham.

"We have to just keep doing what we're doing," the Daily Star quotes Dzeko as saying. "I think Manchester United will drop points, but we just need to keep winning and keep the pressure on them."

City will turn their attention away from the league this weekend when they take on Stoke City in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
