Saturday 23 January 2016
Bantams boss Phil Parkinson has made as many as five changes to his side following Tuesday's extended Emirates FA Cup third round replay with Bury.
Recent loan signing Jamie Proctor, Reece Burke, Kyel Reid, Gary Liddle and Billy Clarke have all been named in Parkinson's line up for the trip to Vale Park.
With James Hanson still ruled out due to a minor calf problem, debutant Proctor and Billy Clarke will replace Luke James and the departed Devante Cole in attack.
Burke comes into central defence at the expense of Nathan Clarke, while Liddle joins Lee Evans in central midfield. Kyel Reid has replaced Mark Marshall on the Bantams' left flank.
