Michael Appleton has a few more options at his disposal, with Sonny Carey back from suspension and deadline day signing Callum Wright up to speed.
Will the Seasiders revert to Appleton’s favoured formation of 4-3-3? Or will they stick with three at the back, a system that worked so effectively last time out against Huddersfield Town?
Given Ian Poveda is an injury doubt, that does give the Seasiders a potential headache at the top end of the pitch, but Appleton does have options available to him.
Here’s how we think Blackpool might line up at the New York Stadium...

3. RB - Jordan Gabriel

4. CB - Marvin Ekpiteta

5. CB - Jordan Thorniley
Should Blackpool revert to a back four, Thorniley has earned his place alongside Marvin Ekpiteta in the centre of defence. But will the Seasiders miss Rhys Williams' height? Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
6. LB - Dom Thompson
