Blackpool v Fulham preview
Blackpool take on Fulham tomorrow afternoon in the Tangerine's first home game of the season.

The Seasiders face a Fulham side buoyed by their 2-2 draw with Manchester United last weekend and the 6-0 thrashing of Port Vale midweek.

Fulham will be without long-term absentees Andrew Johnson (knee) and Philippe Senderos (Achilles) while Mark Schwarzer misses out
New signing Rafik Halliche could play a part after signing from Benfica earlier this week.

One to watch
Bobby Zamora
The England striker is in the form of his life on the back of scoring 19 goals last season and bagged twice in the midweek win over Port Vale.
Armed with pace, strength and a sweet left foot, Zamora was included in the England squad for the friendly against Hungary earlier this month and looks set to become a firm fixture in the national side.
Manager's comments
"I've got the utmost respect for Mark Hughes and Roy Hodgson left behind a lot of quality in that squad. I thought they were absolutely excellent against Manchester United, particularly in the second-half, and did really well by winning 6-0 in the week."
