Sheffield United travel to West Ham on Saturday as an unlikely rivalry comes to the fore once again.
The last time the Blades were in the Premier League, Argentine duo Javier Mascherano and Carlos Tevez helped keep the Hammers in the English top flight at the Yorkshire club’s expense – and this sparked outrage amongst the Bramall Lane faithful due to the fact it was later revealed the pair were ineligible to play.
Chris Wilder’s men travel to the London Stadium off the back of an impressive win over Arsenal, while West Ham were defeated by Everton away from home last time out.
