Prediction: 2-1
Mansfield
Following three consecutive draws in League One, Blackpool will be aiming to return to winning ways when they face Mansfield in round 32. The Seasiders are nine points behind the playoffs berth, meaning that this has to go down as a must-win game for them. As defender Oliver Casey suffered an injury in a goalless draw with Rotherham United, Jordan Lawrence-Gabriel is widely expected to start against Mansfield.
The Yellows, on the other hand, are on a six-game losing in the League One and given their poor defensive display in a 3-0 loss to Leyton Orient, home win should definitely be considered. Speaking of the away team, Elliott Hewitt is likely to replace Aden Flint in the starting XI. In the first half of the season, Mansfield defeated Blackpool 2-0; therefore, the hosts are eager to get their revenge on the visiting side.
Highlighted Team (Blackpool):
Blackpool FC are a professional English club based in Blackpool, Lancashire. Considering that Blackpool is a seaside town, it is no surprise they are nicknamed the Seasiders. Founded back in 1887, the club play their home matches at Bloomfield Road, which can hold up to 17,338 spectators. In the 2009/2010 season Blackpool secured promotion to the Premier League, but they were not competitive at this level, suffering relegation to the Championship the following season.
The club’s biggest success, though, came in 1953 when they defeated Bolton Wanderers 4-3 in the FA Cup final. Blackpool are well known for their orange shirts, but the dominant colour of their away kit is white. Preston are considered the club’s biggest rivals, with the two teams facing each other in the West Lancashire derby.
Charlie Adam, who played for Liverpool and has 26 caps for Scotland national team, is regarded as one of the club’s most notable players.
