It could be a bit of a stumble. If this rocks them, then great,” he added in reference to Monday’s derby victory.The loss was United’s first in the league since November 17 and ended a run of six games without conceding a goal.Ferguson promised his side would "have a go” on Sunday and have three wins and a draw from their last four trips since Stoke returned to the top flight.Stoke, in 15th but only three points above the drop zone, have just one league win this year.Sunderland sit one place above the drop zone and a highly-charged atmosphere is certain when they head a few miles north to take on bitter rivals Newcastle on Sunday.HOSTILE ATMOSPHERESunderland are level on 31 points with 18th-placed Wigan Athletic and after a run of nine games without a win, new manager Paolo Di Canio has told his players they have to "fight a war” at St. James’ Park."I’m looking forward to the game and every match we’re in now is a cup final,” said defender Danny Rose.On Saturday 16th-placed Aston Villa, on 33 points, host Fulham while bottom club Reading host Liverpool and second-last Queens Park Rangers travel to Everton, in what is swiftly becoming the pair’s last chance at a miraculous escape from relegation.Arsenal can further unhinge Tottenham Hotspur’s pursuit of a top four spot knowing a victory at home to Norwich City on Saturday would lift them a point above their north London rivals into fourth.
