Matthew Tymon comes into the side in place of Jake Charles, making the only alteration from the Seasiders’ 0-0 draw away at Hednesford Town. That fixture proved to be the final game in charge for Gary Liddle, who has since departed to join Hartlepool United as Assistant Manager.

Tymon, who converted the decisive penalty in our previous home game, a 1-0 victory over Ilkeston Town on Tuesday 13th January, returns to the starting line-up and will lead the attack.

Charles is not included in today’s matchday squad.

At the back, Alex Nelson and Frankie Whelan pair up in central defence, with Aaron Haswell and Connor Smith operating in the full-back positions.

Captain Lewis Hawkins anchors the midfield alongside Harley Dawson and Adam Gell.

In the forward areas, Donald Chimalilo and Layton Watts are also handed starting roles as Town look to make home advantage count.

Bullock and Kennedy have plenty of options available from the bench, with attacking threats Ben Farrar and Jarrett Rivers among the substitutes. Nick Cranston, Nathan McGinley and Michael Woods also provide further depth.

Isaac Allan; Connor Smith, Aaron Haswell, Alex Nelson, Frankie Whelan; Adam Gell, Harley Dawson, Lewis Hawkins (C); Matthew Tymon, Layton Watts, Donald Chimalilo.
