The Seasiders will be looking to bounce back from a recent dip in form, with defeats coming on the road against Barnsley and Reading, before last Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Bromley on the Fylde Coast.
There’s still positives to build on from the opening month of the campaign, and certain characteristics Ian Evatt’s side will be looking to build on.
Here’s our predicted XI and bench to take on the Pilgrims:

9. Zac Ashworth
Zac Ashworth has been unfortunate to lose his place in the starting XI after enjoying a solid few games at the beginning of the campaign, but could be back as a more defensive option on the left side this weekend. Photo: Gareth Evans
