Prediction: 1-1
Bradford
Saturday’s football game between Crewe Alexandra and Bradford City will open round 19 of the new League Two campaign. The Railwaymen are undefeated in the previous nine league matches, but they need to start winning on a regular basis if they are to secure a top-three finish. There are no fresh injury worries in the home side, but trio Finney – Knight-Lebel – Thibaut is in line for a spot in the starting XI.
The Bantams, on the other hand, failed to win the last five league fixtures. Bradford came from behind to share the spoils with Barrow on Tuesday evening, but given their difficulties on the road, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s encounter. You should know that Crewe defeated Bradford 1-0 in their last meeting at Alexandra Stadium, with Christopher Long scoring the winner from the penalty spot. A man to watch in the away team will be experienced forward Andy Cook, who scored the equalizer in the midweek draw.
Highlighted Team (Crewe):
Crewe Aleandra are a professional football club that welcome their rivals at Gresty Road. The stadium was built in 1906, and it can hold up to 10,153 spectators. Founded back in 1877, Crewe Alexandra play their home games in red shirts and white shorts, while yellow is the dominant colour of their away kit.
The Railwaymen played their first game against North Staffs in 1877, with the two teams sharing the spoils (1-1) at Alexandra Recreation Ground. Nowadays, Crewe compete in the League 2 where they take on their main rivals Port Vale. In 2014 a match between the two sides resulted in violence and arrests. The likes of Wrexham, Macclesfield Town, Shrewsbury Town, and Stoke City are considered the club’s rivals as well.
In 2013 Crewe Alexandra clinched the Football League Trophy as they defeated Southend United 2-0 in the title game at Wembley Stadium. Goals from Max Clayton and Luke Murphy helped the Railwaymen clinch their first and only Football League Trophy.
