Sheffield Utd defender Basham: No intimidation facing Liverpool

Sheffield United defender Chris Basham insists there's no intimidation facing Liverpool.

Basham revealed Chris Wilder's side believe they can shock the visitors by ending their eight month unbeaten run in the competition.

Basham, a member of the squad which gained promotion last term, said: "We don't get starry-eyed.

"The Premier League is the hardest league in the world and teams get points off everybody. We have got to play our way as if we don't, it could be a high score. Hopefully, we can get the result.

"We can make little mistakes, but as long as no-one is getting on others backs. That is when the cracks start happening in a team. We are not like that, we are built on solid team foundations. We fancy ourselves for Liverpool."
