Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Following a 2-2 draw with Morecambe Bradford City will look to return to winning ways in the League Two when they take on Stockport County on Friday evening. The Bantams have been scoring goals for fun of late and we predict that they will adopt yet another attack-oriented approach against Stockport. Kenya defender Clarke Oduor is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring as a substitute in the 2-2 draw with Morecambe.
The Hatters, on the other hand, are eager to retain top position in the standings. The league leaders showed character in a come-from-behind draw with Barrow and given their attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Both Richardson and Powell are pushing for a start after duo Croasdale – Byrne failed to impress in the Boxing Day draw.
Highlighted Team (Bradford):
