The starting XI and bench Blackpool could go with for third friendly of pre-season away to Barrow

Blackpool take on Barrow in their third pre-season friendly of the summer.

The Seasiders head to Holker Street on Saturday afternoon, as they look to build on the minutes they picked up against AFC Fylde and Tranmere Rovers across the last two weekends.

Various players have missed out at different points due to minor injuries, but Ian Evatt’s options should be healthier for the trip to Cumbria.

George Honeyman is set to return after sitting out the game at Prenton Park, while Karoy Anderson will also be in the mix following his return to Bloomfield Road this week.

Olly Casey, Leighton Clarkson and Tom Bloxham will all be back at some stage in the next few weeks, alongside Fraser Horsfall and Michael Ihiekwe – who are edging closer to action following their respective surgeries at the end of last season.

Here’s how Blackpool could line up this weekend:
