Predicted Lineups and Player News for Blackpool vs Burnley 04/03/23 - Championship News

By Victor Martins, FootballPredictions.NET, 12:46 04/03/2023

Burnley journey to Bloomfield Road on Saturday for their Championship tie with Blackpool, so let’s look at the latest injury news and predicted line ups.

Blackpool will be wanting a better result here following a 3-1 Championship defeat last time out to Reading. We think that The Seasiders will probably go for a 4-4-2 formation for this game, utilising Chris Maxwell, Andy Lyons, Curtis Nelson, Jordan Thorniley, James Husband, Josh Bowler, Callum Connolly, Sonny Carey, Luke Garbutt, Ian Poveda and Morgan Rogers.

Keshi Anderson and Lewis Fiorini won’t be able to feature for Blackpool gaffer Mick McCarthy.

How Blackpool might line up for the game against Burnley

Burnley head into the game following a 1-0 FA Cup win with the downing of Fleetwood Town in their previous game. It’s our belief that The Clarets seem most likely to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system by sending out Arijanet Muric, Connor Roberts, Hjalmar Ekdal, Jordan Beyer, Charlie Taylor, Josh Cullen, Josh Brownhill, Nathan Tella, J. Berg Gudmundsson, Anass Zaroury and Ashley Barnes.

Due to a fully healthy squad to choose from, Burnley boss Vincent Kompany does not have any fitness worries at all ahead of this match.
