Stoke City vs Blackpool – Free Betting Tips & Predictions
Blackpool are aiming to start the new Championship season with back-to-back wins when they take on Stoke City on Saturday. Read our top predictions for this weekend’s fixture below.
Contents
Blackpool Double Chance
Blackpool made home advantage count to beat Reading in their first fixture of the new Championship fixture and with their self-belief levels topped up, the Seasiders could put more points on the board at Stoke City’s expense on Saturday. The Potters performed miserably against Millwall in their opening encounter of the season and their display was so limp that they are well worth opposing against a more robust Blackpool in the double chance market.
Under 2.5 Goals
While we have tipped Blackpool to carve out a result at the bet365 Stadium, margins are likely to be wafer-thin in Stoke-on-Trent. The Seasiders managed to find the net just once against Reading last week, while Stoke failed to score completely in their loss at Millwall. Just a single goal was registered when Blackpool last played and beat Stoke in March and backing under 2.5 goals to be scored again could return another winning bet when they meet again on Saturday.

Stoke City Predicted Lineup
Harry Souttar is working his way back from an ACL injury, though the defender is unlikely to see any action until November at the earliest.

Blackpool could be without four players this weekend. Jake Beesley, Kevin Stewart, Jordan Lawrence-Gabriel and James Husband are all out at present, though they could all return before the end of the month. Manager Michael Appleton could stick with the same XI that beat Reading last time out.
