The Seasiders sit eighth in League One, six points behind sixth place Oxford United with four games remaining. In Saturday’s 1-0 victory over Cambridge United, Hayden Coulson returned to the starting XI after missing the Easter Monday draw with Wycombe Wanderers, while James Husband was named on the bench following his recent absence with a thigh problem.
Ollie Norburn was ruled out due to a swollen ankle and Albie Morgan also remained unavailable, but was seen doing some running at full time as he continues to work his way back from the knee injury he picked up at the end of February.
Here’s our predicted XI and bench to take on Fleetwood:
