Last Game: Derby 0-2 Blackpool
Tuesday, August 8 at 7.45pm in EFL Cup

We said: Exeter City 1-2 Blackpool

Both sides should be full of confidence after winning both of their opening matches of the season, but Blackpool carry more pedigree than Exeter having been relegated from the Championship last season. They appear to have found able replacements for Yates in the form of Lavery and Jake Beesley, who have both bagged braces in Critchley's first two matches back at the helm. Their greater goal threat could give them the edge on Saturday in what should be an entertaining encounter. Read more.
