Charlton Athletic v Sheffield United

CHARLTON manager Alan Pardew has conceded, for the first time, that the club face a must-win game in Saturday's Premiership relegation battle against Sheffield United at The Valley.

Pardew said: "Sheffield United is a massive game for this club. You're not supposed to say it's a must-win, but it is a must-win – it's as simple as that.

"The way results have gone, Saturday's match could decide our fate. I believe this team still has a lot to say in what goes on between now and the end of the season."
