Bradford defenders Simon Ramsden and Robbie Threlfall are expected to return to the starting line-up against newly-promoted Stevenage. Manager Peter Taylor made seven changes from the side that lost on the opening day at Shrewsbury for the midweek Carling Cup win over Nottingham Forest and will have several selection dilemmas ahead of his side's first home league game of the season. Full-backs Ramsden and Threlfall both started on the substitutes' bench against Forest, while Omar Daley, Shane Duff, Jake Speight, Louis Moult, Luke O'Brien and Zesh Rehman were all recalled by Taylor. Striker James Hanson stepped off the bench to fire the extra-time winner against Forest and is likely to start on Saturday, but midfielder Michael Flynn (back) and Gareth Evans (knock) are still struggling.
