Pete Wild’s side looks to maintain their perfect start to pre-season as the Bluebirds host Neil Critchley’s Blackpool on Saturday.
The Bluebirds faced arguably their most competitive challenge of pre-season on Tuesday night as they overcame a resilient AFC Fylde side, in the end running out 2-0 winners with Ged Garner scoring an outrageous volley.
We’ll be without young defender Mazeed Ogungbo for the next three months after he tore his meniscus during our victory over Preston North End at the SO Legal Stadium last Saturday.
The opposition
Blackpool on the other hand have had a mixed start to the new season having most recently lost to Championship newbies Plymouth Argyle 2-1 last weekend, having previously run out victorious against Southport FC in their opening fixture of pre-season.
It won’t be the last time we’ll face Blackpool this season as we welcome them back to the SO Legal Stadium on Tuesday the 5th of September in the EFL Trophy.
