Charlton Athletic boss Dean Holden insists they're capable of upsetting Manchester United.

The Addicks are at United tonight for the Carabao Cup quarterfinal.

Charlton haven't played at Old Trafford since February 2007 – they visited United eight times as a Premier League club but the 16 years since their last trip have been a long way from the high-water mark of a seventh-placed Premier League finish in 2004.

Holden hopes that the good days will return to south-east London, telling manutd.com: “We've been in the Premier League and we are fighting our way to get back. It's not been a happy place to be at in the last couple of years so the supporters will be going up there with a lot of optimism and will remember the days at Old Trafford when the club was a Premier League team.

“It's a huge challenge, but you never know in football - the first thing is you've got to believe it and we believe we can go there and show ourselves in the best possible light.

“It'll be huge financially for the club. It'll allow me to do a little bit of business in January which is great, so it's been a really good draw for us - we just need to make sure we do the business on the pitch and make sure we make the game competitive and we embrace the situation".
