Blackpool finish 2023 with a trip to Port Vale this evening (K.O. 7.45pm).
The Seasiders will be looking to bounce back from their 1-0 defeat to Burton Albion on Boxing Day- which proved to be another frustrating day on the road.
Jordan Lawrence-Gabriel pulled out of the warm-up at the Pirelli Stadium due to illness, while Matthew Pennington was subbed at half time for the same reason- with both being assessed ahead of tonight’s fixture.
