Recent respective form guides

Burton Albion's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Brewers have scored 10, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Bradford City's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. The Bantams's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.

Burton Albion see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 54 points from their 40 games played so far, Bradford City find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 48 points from their 40 matches.
