The Seasiders have picked themselves up in the past fortnight, picking up seven points from their last three outings.
CJ Hamilton’s 90th minute winner gave Ian Evatt’s side a 1-0 victory over Burton Albion last weekend, to lift the club out of League One’s bottom four at the expense of the Grecians.
Blackpool will know the job isn’t done yet, with a vital need for the current form to continue, while avoiding slipping into the old habits that have left them short this season.
Here’s our predicted XI and bench to take on Exeter:
1. Bailey Peacock-Farrell -

4. Olly Casey
Blackpool will be hopeful Olly Casey will be fit for Friday afternoon after being forced off against Burton Albion due to an ongoing groin issue. If he's not ready, then Michael Ihiekwe could be the man to step in. Photo: Gareth Evans
5. James Husband
