Squad sheets: Everton v Blackpool
This is the first time Everton have played Blackpool in the FA Cup but these two sides scored 12 goals between them in their two Premier League fixtures last year, so expect plenty of action. Everton remain without the injured trio of Leon Osman, Phil Jagielka and Jack Rodwell, while the on-loan midfielder, Steven Pienaar, is cup-tied after playing for Tottenham in a previous round, but Seamus Coleman returned to reserve team action on Tuesday. The Blackpool winger Matt Phillips is Ian Holloway's only doubt ahead of his side's trip to Goodison after the 20-year-old missed Tuesday's 3-1 win at Doncaster with a tight hamstring.
