You don't choose a target creature card to return from your graveyard to your hand at the time Blood Spatter Analysis's second ability triggers. Rather, a second "reflexive" ability triggers when you sacrifice Blood Spatter Analysis this way. You choose a target for that ability as it goes on the stack. Each player may respond to this triggered ability as normal.
