Sheffield United will welcome a host of current World Cup
stars, including Steven Gerrard, to Bramall Lane on the opening
day of the Premiership after the fixtures generator paired the
Blades with Liverpool.

The season kicks off on the 19th of August at Bramall Lane and is
followed by a trip to London on the 22nd to face Martin Jol's
Tottenham Hotspur. Another trip to the capital takes place on the
26th as the Blades visit Craven Cottage to face Fulham.

United's first ever visit to Arsenal's new Emirates Stadium is the third away game on September the 23rd whilst October the 28th sees the visit of Andrei Shevchenko and Chelsea to Bramall Lane. Other key fixtures include Man United (H) on the 18th of November, a boxing day tie against Man City (H) and a new years day game against Middlebrough.

Hopefully the run-in at the end of the season will be important for reasons such as chasing a European spot (!), but should the Blades find themselves fighting to stay clear of relegation then the final 5 games - West Ham (H), Charlton (A), Watford (H), Aston Villa (A) and Wigan (H) - look quite 'easy' !!
