Michael Appleton’s men were improved in the second-half in South Wales last week when they moved to a 4-4-2 formation, which has prompted calls for Pool to start with that system against the Tigers.
With that in mind, here’s how we think the Seasiders could line up at the MKM Stadium on Monday...
1. Change in tact?

2. GK - Dan Grimshaw
With Chris Maxwell still an injury doubt, with his chances rated as 50/50, Grimshaw is likely to get the nod for the second game running. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
3. RB - Callum Connolly
The Seasiders will be hoping to keep Connolly fit and available until Andy Lyons becomes available in January. Photo: CameraSport - Ian Cook
4. CB - Marvin Ekpiteta
It's not guaranteed at all the captain comes straight back into the side on his return from suspension, so this one is certainly up for debate. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
5. CB - Rhys Williams
This is another tough one. James Husband is still in the frame and Jordan Thorniley is back in contention, so at least Appleton has options at his disposal. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
6. LB - Luke Garbutt
James Husband could always switch over from centre-back, but it would be harsh to drop Garbutt who has arguably been Blackpool's best player over the last two games. Photo: CameraSport - Ian Cook
