United are also fast closing in on retaining their Barclays Premier League title, and next month face an FA Cup semi-final clash with Everton at Wembley.
Ferguson is also just five matches away from his dream of becoming the first manager to retain the Champions League title after reaching the last eight with a 2-0 win over Inter Milan Wednesday night.
When asked whether United could clinch the lot, captain Giggs said: "We've certainly got the momentum, but we'll have to wait and see.
"We'll take each competition as it comes and obviously try and win every game, but you need a lot of luck, as we enjoyed against Inter Milan, and hopefully we'll get there.
"But with the run of results we've had, the belief is definitely there within the squad, with individuals in good form, and the team generally in good form. Everything is set up for an exciting end to the season, which will be a test of character, a test of that belief.
"But the momentum is with us at the moment, and hopefully we'll carry that on through to the end of the season. We're on a great run," insisted Giggs on a side who have lost just one game a league cup tie at Derby of their last 31 in all competitions stretching back four months.
"We did it last season, we've carried on this season, and now we just need to see it through to the end.
