vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Rotherham have won just one of their last five games, with three draws and one defeat. The last round ended in a 1-1 draw away to York, preceded by a 1-0 win away to Northampton; before that a 3-3 draw with Salford City, a 0-1 defeat away to Bristol Rovers and, further back, a 2-2 draw away to Tranmere. Bradford arrive on the back of five straight wins. The most recent was a 2-1 win over Newcastle United U21, preceded by a 1-0 win away to Luton; before that another 1-0 win away to Notts County, a 3-1 win away to Leyton Orient and, further back, a 1-0 win over Mansfield Town. The recent head-to-head record is balanced: two wins each and one draw, with Bradford's most recent win, 1-0, coming last February on their own ground. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
