The 29-year-old was involved in a loan swap deal in February with Rotherham's Kevin Ellison, who will remain with Bradford despite Daley's return, and could be handed a start as the Bantams bid to bounce back from successive defeats.
But manager Peter Jackson is waiting on the fitness of three other key players, with striker James Hanson, winger Ellison and defender Steve Williams all doubtful.
Hanson (hamstring) has missed the last two games, Ellison is still struggling with a thigh injury that has kept him out of the last five matches and Williams was ruled out of Friday's defeat at Southend after picking up a knock in training last week.
Midfielder Lee Bullock was forced to fill in as a centre-back on Friday as fellow defenders Simon Ramsden and Shane Duff remain sidelined. Midfielder Tommy Doherty is another long-term absentee.
