Blackpool go into the game dejected after a 4-1 home defeat to Nottingham Forest. The visitors usually use a 4-4-2 tactical system with a focus on quick transitions, mainly through the flanks. One of the favourable points for the away team is the search for gaps in the opposing defence to target the goal from long range. In this tactical scheme, the two players who will fight head-on with the opposing defensive line are Jerry Yates and Gary Madine. Coach Neil Critchley will be without Shayne Lavery, Grant Ward and Chris Maxwell as they are currently in the medical department.

Confirmed Lineup: Daniel Grimshaw, James Husband, Marvin Ekpiteta, Richard Keogh, Callumm Connolly, Ethan Robson, Josh Bowler, CJ Hamilton, Kenneth Dougall, Gary Madine, Keshi Anderson.
Coach: M. Appleton.
