Blackpool striker Jack Redshaw is suspended for the visit of Bury.

The 25-year-old scored for the first time in eight matches in last weekend's win over Crewe but was sent off for a second bookable offence shortly afterwards and is banned for one match.

On-loan Leicester striker Jacob Blyth, signed on Tuesday, is likely to be included in the squad.

David Ferguson (knee) has trained this week as has Lloyd Jones, who missed the weekend's match with a twisted ankle, but fellow defender Emmerson Boyce is on international duty with Barbados.

All three of Bury's recent loan signings are likely to retain their places for the game at Bloomfield Road.

Goalkeeper Chris Neal, defender Cian Bolger and striker Nathan Delfouneso all made their debuts against Shrewsbury last weekend.

Neal is a certain starter with Ian Lawlor away on international duty and Rob Lainton having suffered a setback in his recovery from a groin injury.
