The Bluebirds v The Seasiders.

Blackpool the tourism capital of the north will be making the trip south, as the Seasiders take on the Bluebirds at Ninian Park.

The Bluebirds could net another double this season after Steve Thompson's wonder strike at Bloomfield Road gave the City a 1-0 away victory on a very cold December night.

Simon Grayson will be looking to get his first win in three after two draws against Hull and Wolves. The last victory on the road was against Norwich at Carrow Road when former Hull striker Stephen McPhee netted twice in the 2-1 win.

Former Hull City striker Ben Burgess is currently the main hitman at Bloomfield road with eight league goals this season. Bluebirds' fans will remember Burgess from his days at Brentford when he was always a thorn in the City side.

Blackpool will be looking to get their first win in seven although they have lost 3 in 13.

Simon Grayson spoke to the Blackpool Gazette concerning the latest situation:

"Time will tell whether the players start showing nerves, but I have no problems with them being able to deal with anything thrown at them.

"They have been challenged in every game of the season because we were underdogs to survive in this division and have proved a lot of people wrong.

"Most of the players in our squad produced at Wembley last year, when a lot of pressure was on them. They produced in the last 10 games of last season.

"They have come through sticky periods this year, when they had been written off, so we have a good bunch who stick together and are mentally strong.

"They push each other on and all want the same thing, and I think because of that we will be OK."

We got to 12th after beating Norwich. Everyone thought we were safe and some even said we could get in the play-offs," he said.

"Even at that point I made sure everyone was aware that we weren't safe because there was still a lot of hard work to be done - and so it has proved.

"We haven't won as many games as I would have liked recently. We are still looking over our shoulder but we are more than capable of putting a couple of wins together and getting ourselves safe.

"The points suggest we have been stuttering lately but we have been playing well.

"When you draw at Stoke and Crystal Palace and are disappointed not to have picked up more points, then that's a mark of how well the team has done.

"We wanted 53 or 54 points by now but the lads have done ever so well in some difficult games.

"They are still full of confidence and I'm sure another win is just around the corner."

Grayson will be looking to turn the corner tomorrow.

TEAM NEWS:

Dave Jones will be waiting on four players who have all picked up knocks.

Tony Capaldi, Kevin McNaughton, Joe Ledley and goalkeeper Peter Enckelman are all doubts, while strikers Paul Parry and Robbie Fowler are ruled out.

Grayson's only concern is striker Steve McPhee, who went off with cramp in the midweek defeat to West Brom.
