Follow live updates as the Bantams contest their annual memorial fixture and final home match of the 2020/21 campaign - against Scunthorpe United...

1: KICK-OFF - IN ASSOCIATION WITH AMICO IT SERVICES: A minute's silence is observed to remember the 56 lives lost in the Valley Parade Fire Disaster on 11th May 1985 - and we are underway at the Utilita Energy Stadium, for City's final home fixture of the 2020/21 campaign. 

3 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: The visitors have started on the front foot but Emmanuel Onariase strides forward and smashes a shot high of the crossbar.

6 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Pressure from City after a quickly-taken free-kick. Charles Vernam pulls back for Finn Cousin-Dawson whose cross earns a corner...

7 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: The delivery is kept alive after being partially cleared, but the second cross into the box is a little too high for Finn Cousin-Dawson to get his head to. 

9 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Chance! City come forward and Levi Sutton feeds Charles Vernam - whose effort from an acute angle is beaten away by Mark Howard. 

15 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Danger from Scunthorpe as Alex Gilliead looks to pick out Kevin van Veen - but a vital interception from Paudie O'Connor concedes a corner, which is cleared. 

21 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: City are still controlling the majority of the ball at the Utilita Energy Stadium - though it has been a game of few clear-cut chances thus far. 

24 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Chance for the visitors. Kevin van Veen gets his head to an Alex Gilliead cross - but Sam Hornby is at full stretch to tip it over the crossbar. Good save!

25 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Alex Gilliead's corner is met by Alfie Beestin at the far post - but he nods a free header wide. Big chance for the Iron to take the lead. 

31 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: The ball falls to Callum Cooke on the edge of the area who lets fly with a long-range effort - though it flies a few feet over the crossbar. Decent attempt!

38 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: City are looking to end the first half on top here, and continue to stream forward. Charles Vernam earns a corner which is cleared.

46: SECOND HALF - IN ASSOCIATION WITH AMICO IT SERVICES - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: We're back underway at the Utilita Energy Stadium. COME ON CITY! 

53 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: It's been a steady start to the second period. City have had their share of the ball but are being frustrated in their attempts to find the opening goal.

60 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: SUBSTITUTION - IN ASSOCIATION WITH PINDERS - Andy Cook comes on to replace Finn Cousin-Dawson for City. The hosts look to have changed shape slightly, with Levi Sutton moving to right-back and Cook and Lee Novak in attack. 

67 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Close! Connor Wood picks up a loose ball and drives forward - before unleashing a right-footed effort goalward which sails just wide!

71 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: SUBSTITUTIONS - IN ASSOCIATION WITH PINDERS - A double change for the Bantams, as Lee Novak and Gareth Evans make way for Clayton Donaldson and Kian Scales.

78 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Post! City are inches away from taking the lead as a long ball is met the far post by Anthony O'Connor. The defender looked to pull the ball back across goal from a tight angle - where Clayton Donaldson was unmarked - but struck the upright!

80 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: A golden opportunity for the visitors to take the lead as Ryan Loft finds himself in space in behind. The towering frontman is thwarted by Sam Hornby and we remain goalless. 

90 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: ADDITIONAL TIME - IN ASSOCIATION WITH SMITH BUTLER: FOUR minutes for either side to find a winner...

90+2 - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Chance! That was the opportunity for the Bantams to take all three points. Kian Scales sends a teasing ball across the face of goal which Clayton Donaldson cannot divert goalwards, as it rolls agonisingly wide!

FULL-TIME - IN ASSOCIATION WITH URBAN ESQUIRE - BRADFORD CITY 0-0 SCUNTHORPE UNITED: Not a classic at the Utilita Energy Stadium. Late pressure came from the Bantams as they looked to snatch all three points in the closing stages - but both sides take a point apiece as Mark Trueman and Conor Sellars' side concludes its 2020/21 home campaign with a goalless draw.
