Sports Mole previews the Championship clash between Blackpool and Peterborough United.

Blackpool play Peterborough United on Saturday as Paul Ince looks to extend the club's unbeaten run to five matches.

The Bloomfield Road outfit have been inconsistent throughout the season, but last week's 2-1 victory at Watford ensured that they created some distance between themselves and the Championship relegation zone.

Ince saw his side make an impact late in the game at Vicarage Road, which could lead to a recall to the starting lineup for striker Nathan Delfouneso.

Like their opponents, Peterborough are also on a four-match unbeaten run, but they have failed to win in their last three games.

Boss Darren Ferguson would have been content with a point from his team's match with Leeds United in midweek, but it wasn't enough for United to move out of the relegation zone.

Grant McCann could come into the side to replace Danny Swanson.
