The Seasiders will feel they should be higher up the League One table, with nine points separating Steve Bruce’s side and the top six.
While they have proven difficult to beat at times, they have also struggled to find a winning edge of their own – especially at home.
Last Saturday’s 3-1 victory over Crawley Town marked their first victory at Bloomfield Road since the end of September, and ended an eight-game run of draws in front of their own fans.
Like the results, it’s been a mixed bag for some of the Blackpool players this season, with a huge gap existing between what they can do at their best and at their worst.
Here’s our ratings from the campaign so far:

19. Tom Bloxham- 7.5
Like Ennis, it's a small sample size for Tom Bloxham, but there's an awful lot to be excited by. The fact that after only a few games, his absence through injury was extremely notable, shows what a bright start he made to life in Tangerine. Photo: CameraSport - Richard Martin-Rob

20. Ashley Fletcher- 7
After a tough start to life at Bloomfield Road, Ashley Fletcher has enjoyed improved performances in recent times, and has become a regular in Bruce's starting XI. Photo: CameraSport - Lee Parker

21. Jake Beesley- 6
It's been a pretty quiet season on the whole for Beesley so far, with an injury back in November leading to an extended spell on the sidelines - which he's recently returned from. Photo: CameraSport - Lee Parker
