First and foremost, Blackpool’s performance has improved a little in the last few Championship games. It is currently 22nd in the overall standings, with 35 points that stem from 37 games: 8 wins, 11 ties and 18 losses.
The last few games have been better than any other game of the season, as, although it has lost three away games, it drew one and won one by a landslide against Queens Park Rangers (6-1). These games in which it obtained some positive results were at home.
In these recent Championship appearances, the team scored seven goals. Among the scorers were Thomas Ince, Andrew Carroll, Jerry Yates, Andy Lyons, Curtis Nelson, Jordan Thorniley and Kenneth Dougall. These are players who contributed to one of the best results the team had during the season so far. An interesting fact is that it was against a team located three positions higher in the standings.
Possible lineup (4-3-3): Chris Maxwell; Curtis Nelson, James Husband, Callum Connolly, Jordan Thorniley; Andy Lyons, Lewis Fiorini, Jerry Yates; CJ Hamilton, Morgan Rogers, Charlie Patiño.

The team’s last five matches have been quite satisfactory, as it has won two and drawn three games, meaning that it could add up some points in each of these matches. The victories at home were against teams that were placed below it in the standings (Sunderland and Huddersfield Town), even though it excelled in both games.
