Chris Ramsey: 'Queens Park Rangers must believe'

Queens Park Rangers boss Chris Ramsey has urged his players to believe that they can beat Manchester City and stay in the Premier League.

The Hoops must come away from the Etihad Stadium with three points this afternoon if they want to keep alive their chances of survival.

While the strugglers are overwhelming underdogs going into the match, Ramsey has backed them to give their all in search of a positive result.

"As long as there are points to be played for, you have to believe you can do it," he told the club's official website.

"The mood in the squad is very good, as it always has been. We understand we have a very big task ahead of us but we're going to go out with the same energy and enthusiasm that we have done in all the games we've played.

"We've got three games to save our season and I'm sure the players will be rolling their sleeves up to try to get that victory at the Etihad."

QPR travel to Manchester having won just one of their last 10 matches in the Premier League.
