Sheffield United v West Ham
Saturday, April 14 2007
PREVIOUS RESULT THIS SEASON: West Ham 1 Sheffield Utd 0 (25-11-06)
LAST TIME AT BRAMALL LANE: Sheffield Utd 1 West Ham 1 (FA Cup 13-02-05)
HEAD-TO-HEAD: Blades 34, Hammers 30, draws 21.
FORM: Sheffield United are in desperate need of three-points, after winning just twice in 2007. They were ten points clear of the drop-zone at one stage, but are now 18th and lost their last outing 2-1 at home to Newcastle.
DANGER MAN: Captain Phil Jagielka is the heartbeat of the side. The former England U-21 international is not only a commanding central midfielder, but is the Blades' reserve goalkeeper, and kept out Arsenal earlier in the season.
FAMOUS FAN: Sean Bean is a massive United fan and is at Bramall Lane each week without fail. He even stared in the film When Saturday Comes' based around his home-town club.
PREDICTION: Sheffield Utd 1 West Ham 2
