Recent respective form guides
Accrington Stanley's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While The Reds have scored 4, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Bradford City's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Bantams have hit 7 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Accrington S. find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 7 points from their 9 matches. Bradford City's total of 16 points from their 9 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League Two.
