Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Bradford City play host to Exeter City at their Valley Parade in the League Two round 32. The Bantams did well to beat Stevenage on Tuesday evening, with the team putting an end to their three-game winless run, and they now aim to move closer to the playoffs berth. Head coach Derek Adams should stick to the 4-3-3 formation, with Andy Cook up front as a lone forward.
Exeter City, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Swindon Town and Leyton Orient. The Grecians have been in a splendid form of late, and even though Bradford footballers regained a much-needed confidence in midweek, we are tempted to put our money on the promotion-chasing visitors. In the first half of the season Exeter City defeated Bradford City at St. James Park.
