Man Utd title inevitable - QPR's Hughes

Manchester United's 20th English league title is inevitable according to QPR manager Mark Hughes.

The Welshman and his R's are away to the league leaders at Old Trafford tomorrow and the former Red Devils striker feels that Sir Alex Ferguson and his charges have one hand on the trophy with just seven games remaining as they lead the rest of the competition by five points.

"I think at this stage of the season there is a little bit of a sense of inevitability," Hughes said.

"United have been in this situation so many times before, City haven't and I think that can be key in this situation.

"You sense that United are looking at fixtures, taking each game on its merits and just ticking off games they have to play from now until the end of the season.

"You would be very surprised if they lost it from the position they find themselves in now."
