Ian Evatt’s side head into the fixture looking to bounce back from last Saturday’s 4-0 defeat away to in-form Lincoln City as they enter a crucial part of the campaign.
Michael Ihiekwe is set to return to contention, after missing the Seasiders’ last three outings. Beyond that, a number of players still remain absent, but a couple more could be back in action this month.
Wigan currently sit above Blackpool on goal difference in the League One table, as both clubs look to put some daylight between themselves and the bottom four.
