Hartlepool United confirmed line-up to face Morecambe – nine changes and a formation switch

Hartlepool United are in action against Morecambe in the Papa John’s Trophy this evening (7pm kick-off) – but how will Dave Challinor’s side line-up?

Pools are expected to make several changes to the side that were beaten 2-0 at Stevenage on Saturday.

A number of fringe players are set to be given a run out in tonight’s group stage match at Victoria Park as Challinor calls upon his players to make the most of their opportunity.

Hartlepool lost their opening match of the competition on penalties at Carlisle United but could move into the top two in the group should they beat Morecambe tonight.
