Ander Herrera hopes it is not raining when Manchester United travel to Stoke on Saturday.

The Spain international admits the bet365 Stadium is a "very difficult" place to play in bad weather and United have not won there in the Premier League since 2013.

Herrera is expecting more hostile atmosphere from the hosts as United look to maintain their perfect start to the season.

"The Premier League is very long and every team can beat you," Herrera told the club's website.

"Now we have to face Stoke, and we've had four seasons without winning there. It's been a good way to start [the campaign] but we cannot relax.

"We are ready to face them and, hopefully, the weather is not so bad there because, when it is bad, it is very difficult to play. We are ready. No excuses - let's try to win there. We are Manchester United, so we are not scared.
