Bradford will be without injured striker James Hanson for the clash at Stockport. Hanson missed out last weekend due to a hamstring strain and is not expected back in contention for at least another fortnight. Bantams pair Simon Ramsden and Michael Flynn also remain sidelined. Defender Ramsden is struggling with a calf injury sustained in last month's Carling Cup win over Nottingham Forest, while midfielder Flynn has yet to appear this season due to hernia problem. Winger Omar Daley is expected to start on the substitutes' bench following international duty with Jamaica, so David Syers should start again after making his first appearance in last week's defeat to Port Vale. Summer signing Jake Speight made his first start for the club against Port Vale and is expected to retain his place alongside Louis Moult, who could step in for Hanson.
