Manchester United's first top-flight trip to Bloomfield Road in 40 years has taken on even greater significance given the state of the Premier League table. <table style="width: 151px; height: 42px" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="151" align="right" border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td><img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/jan/25ryan.jpg" border="0" /></td></tr> <tr> <td> Ryan Giggs</td></tr></tbody></table>Two points ahead of Arsenal and three in front of Manchester City, a third away win of the season would ease United into a clear lead at the top and turn the screw on all their title rivals. Sir Alex Ferguson's men tonight will face a Blackpool side that is starting to look vulnerable after losing four of their last five games, and with star man Charlie Adam seemingly intent on quitting to complete a dream move to Liverpool. Yet United veteran Ryan Giggs is not prepared to take anything for granted. "It is a great achievement for Blackpool to be in the Premier League and see them playing such good football," he said. "They have been a breath of fresh air this season because they have gone out and attacked teams. "They have the mindset that they will try and score goals, even if it means conceding a few. "There has been so many exciting games involving Blackpool, which is a credit to them." "You can see that they are playing with freedom. They respect the teams they are playing against but they think they can beat them. That is a great thing to have. I am sure it will be the same when they are facing us." The Red Devils will be ready to welcome Rafael back into the fold after he was fined ufffd8,000 for his behaviour after being sent off at Tottenham last week.
