Blackpool's Bloomfield Road pitch was finally covered overnight, despite chairman Karl Oyston saying that he had no plans to purchase any earlier in the week. The Tangerines' last two games have been postponed due to the surface being frozen and Town's FA Cup tie on Saturday has also been in significant doubt.
Temperatures dipped below zero last night but covers, which can be seen on Bloomfield Road's webcam, were put in place early in the evening.
Lows of minus three and snow are expected overnight and the match could still be in jeopardy.
