Prediction: 2-1
Luton
Bloomfield Road will host Saturday’s football game between Blackpool and Luton Town, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Championship standings. The Seasiders are on a five-game winless run in the Championship, with the team failing to find the net in the previous two league fixtures. Blackpool are six points behind the playoffs berth, and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach this time out.
Both Bowler and Lavery are pushing for a start, while all Garbutt, Keogh, Stewart, Ward, Maxwell, and Virtue should miss out with injuries. The Hatters, on the other hand, failed to win the previous four league fixtures. Luton Town do not seem to be at the top of their game, meaning that Blackpool will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways. Midfielder Luke Berry should be the only absentee in the away team.
Highlighted Player (Chris Maxwell):
Chris Maxwell is a Welsh goalkeeper who was born in St Asaph on July 30, 1990. Maxwell began his youth career at Penrhyn Bay (1998-2000) and in 2000 he moved to Wrexham. The 188-cm-tall shoot-stopper made his first-team debut for Wrexham at the age of 18 and he played 76 league games for the club from 2008 to 2012.
During the 2008/2009 season he spent six months on loan at Welsh club Connah’s Quay Nomads and in 2012 he joined Fleetwood Town. Chris Maxwell made 110 appearances in the league for the Trawlermen and on May 16, 2016 he signed a three-year deal with Championship side Preston North End. You should know that he managed to keep clean sheets in 38 appearances for the Lilywhites in the 2016/2017 Championship campaign.
Due to his dual citizenship, Maxwell is capable of representing both Wales and Scotland at senior level, but he played for the Dragons at youth level, being capped for the U21 team 16 times.
