Bradford manager Colin Todd could hand debuts to Billy Paynter, Bruce Dyer and Kelly Youga for the visit of Nottingham Forest.
All three players signed month-long loan deals in time to be included in Todd's squad, but the Bantams will be without Jermaine Johnson and Nathan Doyle who completed deadline-day moves to Sheffield Wednesday and Hull respectively.
Charlton defender Youga could start in place of Doyle, while Southend striker Paynter and Doncaster's Dyer will be vying for a place in attack.
Todd also has forwards Dave Hibbert and Eddie Johnson available. The former, on loan from Preston, is expected to recover from a dead-leg.
Craig Bentham is hoping to start in midfield after stepping off the bench last week, while Todd has no new injury or suspension problems.
Manager Colin Calderwood is likely to field a new-look Nottingham Forest side.
Calderwood is expected to hand debuts to new signings David Prutton and Luke Chambers, while Nicky Eaden, John Thompson, Nicky Southall and Danny Cullip all left the City Ground this week.
Kris Commons continues to be ruled out by hamstring troubles, and with back-up goalkeeper Rune Pedersen continuing to struggle with knee problems, Academy shot-stopper Shane Redmond is likely to retain his place on the bench.
