Blackpool squad news V Lincoln City: Five out of trip to Lincoln City
Blackpool take on Lincoln City at the LNER Stadium this afternoon.
Blackpool head to in-form Lincoln City looking to build a strong run of form in League One.
On the back of a 4-0 hammering to Plymouth Argyle earlier this month, Ian Evatt’s side have picked up four points from their last two games.
After claiming a 1-0 victory over Mansfield Town, Blackpool were able to hold Bolton Wanderers to a 2-2 draw at the Toughsheet Community Stadium last Saturday, and had their fair share of chances to take the win.
Joel Randall is set to return for the trip to Lincolnshire, while there’s currently no new injury concerns for the Seasiders to contend with.
There is of course no Michael Obafemi for the remainder of the season, with the striker’s loan spell being brought to an early conclusion due to injury, just like Kamarl Grant last month.
Here’s the latest squad news:
James Husband
James Husband is serving a four-match ban after being sent off for kicking out in the defeat to Plymouth earlier this month.
Albie Morgan
Albie Morgan is out for the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery on an ankle injury last week.
Ryan Finnigan
Ryan Finnigan was added to Blackpool’s list of absentees earlier this month, with the midfielder picking up an ankle injury against Huddersfield.
The ex-Southampton youngster is due back in the next couple of weeks based on the original schedule that was outlined.
Andy Lyons
Andy Lyons was added to the injury list last month, with the defender ruled out for eight to 10 weeks with an achilles issue.
Dale Taylor
On what was his first start since October following a lengthy spell on the sidelines, Dale Taylor was forced off after just six minutes against Doncaster Rovers on Boxing Day.
The striker has since undergone surgery on a metatarsal injury, and is expected to be out until next month.
