Blackpool team news V Luton Town: Three changes from midweek defeat

Blackpool face Luton Town at Kenilworth Road this afternoon.

Blackpool have named their team to take on Luton Town.

The Seasiders head to Kenilworth Road looking to bounce back from their 2-1 defeat to Stockport County at Bloomfield Road on Tuesday night.

Ian Evatt has been forced into three changes, with Kamarl Grant, George Honeyman and Joel Randall all dropping out of the matchday squad due to injury.

Michael Ihiekwe returns to the back three, after being rested against the Hatters on the back of his recent return from a toe injury.

Elsewhere, Lee Evans comes into the midfield for Honeyman, while Michael Obafemi joins Ashley Fletcher up front, with Tom Bloxham dropping down to the bench.

Youngsters Theo Upton, Terry Bondo and Spencer Knight are also among the substitutes due to a shortage of first-team players.

Here’s the full starting XI: Bailey Peacock-Farrell, Olly Casey, Michael Ihiekwe, James Husband, CJ Hamilton, Jordan Brown, Lee Evans, Josh Bowler, Zac Ashworth, Michael Obafemi, Ashley Fletcher.

Substitutes: Franco Ravizzoli, Niall Ennis, Tom Bloxham, Ryan Finnigan, Theo Upton, Terry Bondo, Spencer Knight.
