Bradford City vs Port Vale
Kick Off: 3.00pm
at the Coral Windows Stadium
On his four-year anniversary as Bantams boss, Phil Parkinson has stuck with the same eleven that began last Saturday's goalless draw at Barnsley.
This means home debuts for loanees Reece Burke and Lee Evans, while the likes of Paul Anderson, Mark Marshall and Steven Davies all keep their places in the side.
Fresh from signing for the club on Friday, new City striker Devante Cole will start the Port Vale fixture from the bench.
