The Seasiders are currently going through an early-season injury crisis – with five players set to miss Saturday’s game.
Up until a few weeks ago, there was pretty much a full bill of health at Bloomfield Road, but the picture has quickly changed.
Danny Imray has become the latest to be added to the list of absentees, after the fullback was forced off with a knee injury in Tuesday night’s 2-2 draw with Luton Town.
This comes at an already difficult time for Steve Bruce, with his side managing just eight points in their opening 10 games this season.
Here’s our predicted XI and bench to take on Wimbledon:
