Blackpool vs Kidderminster - Blackpool to consider changes for FA Cup first-round clash with Kidderminster

Posted Friday, November 04, 2016 by PA

Blackpool boss Gary Bowyer will consider changes for his side's FA Cup first-round clash with Kidderminster as he prepares for two games in three days.

After the FA Cup assignment on Sunday, the Seasiders face Everton Under-23s in the EFL Cup on Tuesday and rotation could be in order.

There are no new injuries but Sam Slocombe is likely to continue in goal as Dean Lyness nurses an ankle-ligament problem.

Jack Redshaw, who is battling shin splints, is Bowyer's only other absentee.

Kidderminster manager John Eustace, who celebrated his 37th birthday on Thursday, could name an unchanged team for the third-straight match.

After beating Harrogate 2-0, Eustace picked the same starting line up against Stockport last weekend and those players repaid his faith with a 1-0 victory which elevated Harriers up to third in the Conference North table.

The only change to the squad at Edgeley Park came on the bench where young goalkeeper Tom Palmer replaced defender Wayne Thomas, who has gone out on loan.

Kidderminster will again be without Jared Hodgkiss and Elton Ngwatala through injury.
