History of the Sheffield United v Charlton Athletic fixture

Charlton Ath. face a trip to Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 19 out of 29 times.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in December 2006, the The Blades carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Premiership match.
