Stralman missed the 1-0 overtime loss to the Boston Bruins on Tuesday with an illness. Coburn missed the past two games with a lower-body injury.
"Every day has been better for me," Coburn said. "So that's a positive. It was a kind of a freak thing; I got tangled up with a guy real weird. It was unlucky."
This will be Coburn's first game against the Flyers since being traded to the Lightning on March 2, 2015. He missed the 4-2 loss Monday at Wells Fargo Center.
"That was a tough one to swallow," Coburn said. "It's one of those things, since the trade happened, you circle that date on the schedule that you get to go back. Anytime you're watching your team and you're not there it's hard but especially when it's against your old team for sure."
Tampa Bay is 0-1-1 after its franchise-record nine-game win streak. The Lightning are tied with the Florida Panthers for second place in the Atlantic Division -- one point behind the Boston Bruins with two games in hand.
Philadelphia finished their recent homestand 5-1-0. The Flyers are three points behind the Pittsburgh Penguins for the second wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs out of the Eastern Conference.
Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said he will keep the same lineup he had Monday and said he expects similar effort and mentality from his team.
"I don't care what league you're in, this is the time of year that you want to be playing for something and our team is," Hakstol said. "That's the only thing that's on my mind. This is the first of six back-to-backs remaining on our schedule so we're not going to think too far ahead."
Lightning forward Brian Boyle said Tampa Bay played poorly against Philadelphia and can't afford a repeat of that game.
"This time of year you need to make sure you're firing on all cylinders," Boyle said. "We can't accept efforts like we had in Philly. There's really no excuse for that. We need to play well and get into really good habits going into the playoffs."
Steve Mason will make his 40th start of the season in goal for Philadelphia. Ben Bishop, who is 6-0-1 in his past seven games, starts for the Lightning.
