Michael Appleton explains James Husband's absence following Blackpool's defeat to Norwich City

Blackpool return to action against high-flying promotion favourites Norwich City this afternoon on their return from the international week.

Michael Appleton’s side will be hoping to put the break to good use as they aim to get back to winning ways after suffering back-to-back before the international window.

They will have their work cut out though against a Norwich side who currently sit second in the table and are well fancied for another return to the top flight.
