The Seasiders will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing end to 2023, which finished with away defeats to Burton Albion and Port Vale.
A number of players have been absent through illness in the last week, while both Jake Beesley and Ollie Norburn were forced off with injury on Friday evening at Vale Park.
Here’s our predicted line-up for New Year’s Day:
19. SUB: Owen Dale
Owen Dale came off the bench off Port Vale and had some bright moments. He could be utilised in a more central role with some of the absentees up front. Photo: CameraSport - Andrew Kearns
