City Head Coach Michael Collins has made three changes to his starting XI following Tuesday's Carabao Cup tie at Macclesfield Town.
Richard O'Donnell, skipper Josh Wright and Eoin Doyle have all been restored to the Bantams' line-up for the trip to Roots Hall.
After scoring on his debut in the midweek tie at Macclesfield, Luca Colville keeps his place in the side for the League One encounter with Southend United.
Sherwin Seedorf is not risked due to injury, while Ben Wilson and George Miller move down to the bench.
