Preview: Sheffield United vs. Charlton Athletic

Sheffield United vs. Charlton

Sheffield United manager Nigel Clough will be confident of continuing their fairytale run in the FA Cup when they face Charlton Athletic at Bramall Lane.

The Blades have already defeated Aston Villa, Fulham and Nottingham Forest on their way to the last eight, and Clough will believe that the Yorkshire outfit can secure a fourth scalp when they play the Championship side.

Clough could replace striker Callum McFadzean with Jose Baxter for the fixture with the Addicks.

Charlton have reached the FA Cup quarter-finals despite sitting in the relegation zone in England's second tier.

Boss Chris Powell has witnessed Athletic lose four out of their last six fixtures, but they did beat United's city rivals Sheffield Wednesday in the last round.

Powell could include Dorian Dervite in place of Michael Morrison for the trip to Yorkshire.
