Accrington Stanley manager John Coleman will be hoping his side can return to winning ways when they face Blackpool at Bloomfield Road this afternoon, 3pm kick-off.
The Reds are currently five games unbeaten, with striker Offrande Zanzala securing a late point away at Doncaster Rovers in Stanley's last outing.
However the hosts come into the game on the back of a 1-0 home defeat to Shrewsbury Town, with Fejiri Okenabirhie scoring from the penalty spot.
In the dugout for Blackpool is Simon Grayson, with the 50-year-old having returned for a second spell at Bloomfield Road in July 2019.
Blackpool currently sit 7th in the Sky Bet League One table, with the Reds occupying 17th place.
Stanley defender Mark Hughes secured a point with a late equaliser in the corresponding fixture last season, with the reverse fixture finishing 2-1 to Blackpool.

Key Players

Virtue has scored three goals so far this season, including a late equaliser against Stanley in the reverse fixture earlier in the season.
Sullay Kaikai - Kaikai is a product of the Crystal Palace Academy and he made 11 appearances for the club. During his time at Palace, the winger went out on loan to five different clubs, before joining Dutch side NAC Breda permanently in January 2019. Six months later the 24-year-old joined Blackpool and he has found the net on six occasions this season.
Armand Gnanduillet - Gnanduillet began his career in France before joining Chesterfield in January 2013, with the striker then going on to make 98 appearances for The Spireites. A move to Leyton Orient followed before he signed for Blackpool in August 2016. The 27-year-old joined South African side Baroka in the summer of 2018, but he was never formally registered as a player for the Polokwane-based club, and he then returned to The Seasiders in July 2018.
