Sports Mole looks ahead to the FA Cup third-round tie between Queens Park Rangers and League One's Sheffield United.

Sheffield United will be looking to build on their recent run of cup upsets when they travel to Queens Park Rangers in the third round of the FA Cup this weekend.

The League One side played at Wembley in the semi-finals of this competition last season, knocking out top-flight sides Aston Villa and Fulham on their way to the last four.

Nigel Clough's men have shown their cup prowess again this season, with a semi-final against Tottenham Hotspur to come in the League Cup.

The visitors will be missing defender Chris Basham through suspension, while Chris O'Grady has returned to parent club Brighton & Hove Albion.

Meanwhile, Harry Redknapp has admitted that he will be resting several of his regular starters for the visit of the Blades on Sunday.

The manager said at his pre-match press conference that he is considering just 19 members of his squad available for this fixture, with Bobby Zamora, Clint Hill and Richard Dunne all likely to be rested.

QPR come into this match without a win in their last three Premier League outings, including Thursday's draw against 10-man Swansea City.

QPR have struggled to get a run going in the FA Cup in recent seasons, reaching the fourth round of the competition just twice since the 2000-01 season.

When these two sides were last in the same division, QPR clinched two 3-0 wins over the Blades.

Queens Park Rangers:

Form in FA Cup: WLDWLL
Form in all competitions: WLWLDD

Possible starting lineup: Green, Isla, Ferdinand, Caulker, Phillips, Vargas, Henry, Barton, Mutch, Fer, Austin

Sheffield United:

Form in FA Cup: WWLDWW
Form in all competitions: LWDWDL

Possible starting lineup: Howard, McGahey, McEveley, Harris, Doyle, McCarthy, Cuvelier, Murphy, Scougall, Campbell-Ryce, Reed

Sports Mole says: 2-1
