Sir Alex Ferguson admitted if the final game of counter Basel Champions League group this week was not easy, but Manchester United should take advantage of last chance to qualify for the next round.

Red Devils reached the finals three times in the last four seasons, need a positive result when it challenged the Swiss representative in the cage to ensure a ticket to the round of 16.

United is currently in second place Group C standings, and good results seem counter Basel will only strengthen them in the runner-up group under Benfica, who in the last match 'only' will entertain caretaker standings, Otelul Galati.

But Ferguson remains optimistic about the chances of his troops advanced to the knockout round, although they are also not allowed to take the risk of facing a team that is able to hold them 3-3 at Old Trafford.

"I think we may have to slightly improve our game and make sure we do not underestimate the group phase," said Ferguson.

"We should win the home games versus Basel and because we can not do it, now we have to go out there and make sure they did not beat us. We could have been consumed by our relaxed attitude."

"We have players who can take us away in Switzerland, it is no doubt, but they must look good. This is our last chance and this game will not be easy," said the Scottish manager further.

"However, Basel needed a victory and it may give us a slight advantage. At a certain point of the game, they should try to beat us, but I do not see them going directly attack us."
