Blackpool are set to be without Matty Virtue for the next few weeks.

The midfielder has missed the Seasiders’ last couple of games after suffering a hamstring injury in training.

Following a scan, Neil Critchley provided an update on how long the 26-year-old is expected to be out for for.

“He’ll be a few weeks- it’s not long-term,” he said.

"It’s not like Shayne Lavery either.

"It’ll be a number of weeks.

"It’s not nice because we don’t want to lose Matty, I felt he played really well against Reading, but we’ve not had many injuries so far this season.”
