Thursday’s football game at Bloomfield Road pits together Blackpool and Sheffield United, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the 2022/2023 season.
The Seasiders aim to secure yet another Championship survival, while Sheffield United are eyeing automatic promotion to the Premier League.
Defender Jordan Thorniley is banned for the hosts following his sending off in the Boxing Day draw with Hull City, while both Bridcutt and Gabriel remain in the treatment room.
Meanwhile, the Blades aim to build on a 3-1 win over Coventry City. Sheffield United are eyeing their fifth consecutive league win, and given Blackpool’s seven-match winless run in the Championship, away triumph should be considered.
Defender John Egan is banned for the midweek clash, while all Fleck, Brewster, Norrington-Davies, Jebbison, and O’Connell are out of contention through injuries.
This match will be played on 29/12/2022 at 21:15
