Bradford City will try to continue their impressive run when they face Burnley at Valley Parade in the EFL Cup second round. The League One side have won their last three games in all competitions and look capable of giving their Championship opponents a real test. Bradford have also been solid defensively, conceding just 0.67 goals per game across their last six home matches, while their 1.75 home xG suggests they have enough attacking threat. Both Swan and Phillips are pushing for a start, with no fresh injury concerns for the hosts.
Burnley, meanwhile, are desperate to bounce back from a 3-1 defeat to West Brom in the Championship. The Clarets are still searching for their first win in their last 10 matches, with their away form particularly worrying. Burnley have lost four of their last five away games, conceding 2.60 goals per match during that spell. The Championship side have also failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last 10 outings. Roberts, Amdouni, and Satpaev are all pushing for a place in the starting XI, and changes could help freshen up the visitors.
Burnley games have produced an average of 3.10 goals across their last 10 and given Bradford's fine attacking form at the start of the season, we predict Over 2.5 goals, alongside BTTS and Over 3.5 (small stake).
This EFL Cup match will be played on Wednesday 26 August 2026 at 19:45.
