Neil Warnock is relishing the prospect of playing "the best team in the world" when Manchester City visit Cardiff City in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Neil Warnock has expressed his excitement at facing "the best team in the world" when Manchester City visit Cardiff City in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

The Bluebirds needed a replay to see off Mansfield Town after a goalless draw in their first third-round encounter at the Cardiff City Stadium.

However, a comprehensive 4-1 win by Cardiff at the One Call Stadium ensured that the runaway Premier League leaders will head to the Welsh capital on January 28.

"It is a great game for us, we can't lose whatever the result," Warnock told BBC Sport. "To have a reward like Man City is fabulous for us, it really is.

"It is like us playing Mansfield, it is a hard game and Man City will have to be up for it, won't they? We will have a great crowd, I would be disappointed if it wasn't a full house, playing against the best team in the world.

"Our lads will look forward to it, we have to try and be organised and hope they have a bad day. We need to try and get some inside information about how Liverpool did it (beat Man City)."

Cardiff return to Championship action on Saturday evening with a trip to Sheffield Wednesday.
