The Bantams are back on home soil this weekend - as they welcome top-of-the-league Forest Green Rovers in a 3.00pm kick-off in Sky Bet League Two.
Forest Green have been fastest out of the blocks this season, sitting five points clear at the top of the table after 14 games.
City have only played the Greens on three occasions, with the results being equally split: both sides have one win, with the other game ending a draw.
We have created a Big Match Preview to give you all the key details you need to know, heading into the encounter.
TEAM NEWS
City: Liam Ridehalgh remain Callum Cooke are doubts for Saturday’s clash, despite Cooke returning to training on Thursday.
Sam Hornby has trained with a protective mask after sustaining a facial injury, though is still not expected to feature.
Jorge Sikora will be unavailable, having joined Spennymoor Town on an initial 28-day loan, while Abo Eisa and Lee Angol remain out.
Forest Green: Rob Edwards will be without centre-halves Dan Sweeney and Jordan Moore-Taylor as the pair continue to recover from their respective injuries.
Rovers will however have Udoka Godwin-Malife at their disposal, as the centre-back replaced the injured Moore-Taylor for his first minutes since August on Saturday.
Elliott Whitehouse remains on the sidelines, having yet to appear for Rovers this season.
WHAT THE MANAGERS SAID
Derek Adams: “The mood has been as positive as it always is.
“We had a good win away at Swindon Town last weekend, who were in form, and are just looking forward to being back home again.
“Over the course of the season, we have gone toe to toe with every team we have taken on.
“We certainly did that on Saturday at Swindon, and are looking to do it again - against Forest Green - this weekend.”
Rob Edwards: “It is a fantastic stadium, with a brilliant crowd that get behind the team - and Bradford have some very good players.
“It has been a tough month, with a lot of travelling and some very tough fixtures, and so far we have stood up to the challenge well, but we have got a massive challenge to end it.
“We have had a good week’s training - off the back of a good performance against Salford - and what we want to try and do is finish off strongly, before the cup games.”
