Bantams boss David Hopkin has made one change to his side for City's New Year's Day encounter with Accrington Stanley at the Northern Commercials Stadium.
In the Club's opening game of 2019, Hopkin has brought George Miller back into his starting XI for the sidelined Jim O'Brien.
With O'Brien, Hope Akpan, Luca Colville and Kelvin Mellor all ruled out, apprentice midfielder Jake Maltby joins fellow scholar Eliot Goldthorp on City's bench.
