Fleetwood vs Blackpool preview: latest form, news, and potential lineups

Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Fleetwood vs Blackpool lineups.

Fleetwood

Fleetwood played a solid game away vs Barnsley on Saturday. The Cod Army took the lead twice in the first half but they were way too passive after the interval and in the end, had to settle for a 2-2 draw. Quitirna scored both goals but he left the pitch injured too and his possible absence now from midfield will be a huge blow. 

Fleetwood are playing much better since the change of managers and they lost only 2 of their last 7 league games – W3 D2. 

Apart from the possible absence of the in-form Quitirna, 4 goals in the last 7 rounds, the only other important player that could miss is defender Nsiala. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Lynch (GK), Rooney, Heneghan, Lawal, Sarpong-Wiredu, Mayor, Vela, Broom, Earl, Stockley & Marriott

Blackpool

Blackpool saw their 4-game unbeaten run come to an end on Saturday. The Seasiders lost 2-4 at home vs Peterborough. Played pretty well until an early second-half red card for Casey. Collapsed after that. 

Blackpool tend to be very cagey on the road and they rarely score more than 1-2 goals but also very rarely concede more than a goal or two. 

Casey is suspended now and his absence in defence will be felt. Especially, with the main cover for his role Lawrence-Gabriel still among the trio of long-term absentees. Useful midfielder Norburn is also nursing a knock and he is considered touch-and-go. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Grimshaw (GK), Pennington, Connolly, Husband, Hamilton, Dougall, Carey, Norburn, Dembele, Lavery & Rhodes

​Player to Watch: Josh Vela

Fleetwood’s captain Josh Vela has been a crucial figure in midfield and he is expected to be pulling the strings again in that area on Wednesday. Vela’s experience and ability to find the right pass even when under pressure make him simply indispensable for Fleetwood.
