Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart does not believe that the Premier League title will be decided in the clash with Manchester United in April.

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart has played down the significance of April's clash with Manchester United, insisting that there are "massive games" in the coming weeks.

City sit just two points above United at the top of the Premier League, with the clash between the two on April 30 being touted as the title decider.

Hart, however, has failed to agree with the general consensus and has set his sights on the next couple of games.

"There is loads of football to be played. We have got some massive games. We've got struggling Wolves to go to, we've got a really tough Swansea side to play next week, and we're involved in the Europa League," Hart told talkSPORT.

"There's an awful lot before April 30th. It's obviously going to be exciting and built up by a lot of people but we have got a lot to deal with before that."

Hart joined City from Shrewsbury Town in 2006.
