History of the Chester City v Bradford City fixture

Bradford City travel to take on Chester City at The Saunders Honda Stadium on Wednesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Bantams will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 21 and win only 5 of the 33 games.

The last time the two teams met at Chester City was more than a decade ago, in August 1994, as the visitors ran out cosy 1 - 4 winners in a League Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Chester City could not have a worse home record, losing every single one of the last six matches played! Blues have conceded a disappointing 12 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 2 of their own chances.

Bradford City's away form is none too clever either, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the Bantams, and 10 goals against.

Chester City find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 40 points from their 36 matches. Bradford City see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 44 points from their 34 games played so far,
