Blackpool continue their playoff push in League One this weekend as they face Bristol Rovers this weekend.
Blackpool currently sit 8th in League One with nine wins, six draws and seven losses from twenty-two games this season.
The Seasiders are having a solid season in League One as they seek promotion back to the Championship.
Their form has been up and down but they're a clear playoff contender and they're coming into this one in fairly solid league form having won three and lost two of their last five games.
Their most recent game did, though, end in a frustrating 2-1 loss away at Cambridge United, a game they were really looking to win given Cambridge's poor recent form.
On home soil they're a decent side having won three of their last five games on home soil with those wins coming by a combined scoreline of 10-2.
The Tangerines need to find a better level of consistency if they're going to separate themselves from the other chasing playoff contenders because right now they're not doing quite enough to assert themselves on the division.
They need to rebound from defeat in Cambridge and they'll fancy their chances here.
Bristol Rovers currently sit 11th in League One with seven wins, seven draws and six losses from twenty games this season.
The Pirates have been a fairly mediocre outfit for the most part this season but following the departure of manager Joey Barton things have started to improve.
They're entering this game in decent form having lost only one of their last five games in all competitions, the most recent of which was an excellent 2-1 win away at playoff-chasing Bolton Wanderers.
The win at Bolton was a huge three points for Rovers, coming through goals from John Marquis and Antony Evans, and means they're entering this game with some significant momentum behind them.
Their away form is another source of encouragement too, with the Pirates having won three of their last five games on the road.
Bristol Rovers are trending in a positive direction and while they won't be getting carried away they'll feel as though they can mount a playoff push later in the season if they can continue to steadily improve. A win here would only strengthen that belief and that outcome would not be a massive shock.
For our Blackpool vs. Bristol Rovers prediction, we're going for a 2-2 draw.
