Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Bradford City will be aiming to build on their impressive 3-0 victory over Mansfield when they host AFC Wimbledon at the University of Bradford Stadium. The Bantams were impressive in front of goal, and the return of influential forward Andy Cook to the starting lineup will further boost their attacking options. However, they should be without Joe Adams, who picked up an injury in the EFL Trophy clash.
AFC Wimbledon, on the other hand, also enjoyed a splendid 3-0 win over MK Dons in their last League Two game. The Dons have shown they can be dangerous going forward, but their defensive frailties have been a concern. With experienced midfielder Jake Reeves rated doubtful, their midfield stability could be tested. Given both teams' recent form and attacking potential, this encounter promises goals at both ends. Bradford’s offensive firepower combined with Wimbledon’s counter-attacking threat should result in an open and entertaining game. Taking everything into account, we are likely to see goals galore in Saturday's showdown.
