Gary Bowyer's development squad will be looking to get back to winning ways after resuming their campaign with a disappointing 3-0 home defeat to Everton last time out.
With a host of Reserve team regulars now out on loan, Bowyer is expected to name a young side for the match that takes place at the Greene King Stadium.
Kick-off this evening is at 7.00pm, full team news to be confirmed later.
