Bantams boss Stuart McCall has made two enforced changes to his side for City's trip to AFC Wimbledon this Saturday (23 December 2017).
With Nathaniel Knight-Percival and Dominic Poleon hampered due to injuries, Adam Thompson and Wimbledon old-boy Jake Reeves have been recalled into City's starting XI.
Thompson is expected to partner Matthew Kilgallon in central defence, while Reeves will play alongside skipper Romain Vincelot in midfield.
For Reeves, this Saturday's festive fixture will be his first return to the Cherry Red Records Stadium after joining City last summer.
Defensive duo Tom Field and Jacob Hanson have been named on the bench following Thompson and Reeves' promotion up into the side from last weekend.
