Blackpool form and stats

Seven points from three League One home games is a great start for Blackpool, who are hoping to build on that form here at Bloomfield Road.

The fans are hoping that Blackpool will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 2-3 away loss in the League One game against Coventry City (placed 2nd). Ahead of that match, Blackpool won a home game hosting Morecambe (5-1).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Blackpool have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eleven games) they have won 4 times, drawn 6 and lost 1.

The manager S. Grayson will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Doncaster Rovers in only three days.

Blackpool have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Bloomfield Road with 5 goals in 3 league matches. Blackpool are not conceding a lot of goals here at Bloomfield Road in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 2 from 3 matches.
