City are in action at the Utilita Energy Stadium once again - hosting Bolton Wanderers in Sky Bet League Two on Saturday afternoon (3.00pm).
The Bantams have won 10 matches out of their last 14 and are currently sitting 10th in the table, and four points from the play-off positions. Victory against the Trotters would see City bag a sixth-straight win for the first time since 1984.
Saturday’s visitors are also on an impressive run of form which has seen them rise up to 6th - following six wins on the bounce.
We have compiled all of the key information that you will need to know ahead of the visit from Ian Evatt’s side in this Big Match Preview.

Harry Pritchard, who will head for surgery on a back injury, is unavailable, as Lee Novak, Zeli Ismail and Bryce Hosannah remain out.

Veteran goalkeeper Matt Gilks is in line to feature at the Utilita Energy Stadium along with Alex Baptiste, Kieran Lee and Nathan Delfouneso.

WHAT THE MANAGERS SAID
Conor Sellars: "Regardless of any record, we just want to win as many games as possible between now and the end of the campaign - and keep building momentum ahead of next season.
"We are on a good run and it will be a big test, as they are in fantastic form, but hopefully we will be ready and will be able to do enough to take all three points."
Ian Evatt: "It is a big game and it really makes you think about where we are at in the world, because there would have probably been over 20,000 fans in there.
"It is two big clubs in their own right going head to head, and it is a real shame (supporters cannot be there)."
LAST TIME OUT
The Bantams fell to a 1-0 defeat at the University of Bolton Stadium towards the end of October.
