Bradford City prepare to entertain Derby County at The Bradford & Bingley Stadium on Tuesday evening,

The most recent encounter between these two sides at The Bradford & Bingley Stadium was less than a year ago, in October 2002, when they played out a goalless draw in a League Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Bradford City's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Bantams have scored 4, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Derby's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Rams have hit 5 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Bradford City find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 10 points from their 9 matches. Derby are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 9 points from 9 matches.
