The Seasiders head into the fixture on the back of a week off following the postponement of last Saturday’s Rotherham United game due to Storm Darragh.
Prior to that, they had claimed a 2-1 midweek victory away to Shrewsbury Town, to make it back-to-back wins in League One after overcoming Bristol Rovers at the Memorial Stadium the Tuesday before.
Steve Bruce is set to welcome both Hayden Coulson and Jordan Rhodes back into contention following their spells on the sidelines through injury, while Olly Casey and Ollie Norburn return after suspension.
Here’s our predicted XI and bench:

6. Ollie Norburn
Like Casey, Ollie Norburn returns to contention after serving a one-match ban. Depending on the personnel available, Blackpool could use a three-man midfield like they did against Shrewsbury Town. Photo: CameraSport - Richard Martin-Rob
