Rochdale Double Chance

Bradford have gone off the boil of late and The Bantams’ dismal five-game winless run has seen them slip towards League Two’s midsection. The hosts could be without several key first team players for their latest test against Rochdale on Saturday and they could be worth opposing again as a result. The Dale have taken seven points from the last nine on offer on the road and they can avoid defeat again here.

Both Teams to Score

Both teams to score bettors have plenty of promising statistics to peruse ahead of Bradford’s clash with Rochdale this weekend. Three of City’s last four League Two assignments produced goals at both ends while BTTS also landed in 100% of Rochdale’s away games this term. With clean sheets in short supply in both camps, the same bet appeals at the prices on offer on Saturday.

Over 2.5 Goals

Rochdale have adopted a brave approach in their away games this season and their philosophy has reaped dividends. The front-foot ideology has also produced plenty of entertainment, indeed, three of their four away tussles in League Two since the summer have passed the over 2.5 goals line and we expect that pattern to continue when they visit Valley Parade.

Bradford Team News

Bradford could be without key midfielder Charles Vernam and attackers Lee Angol, Caolan Lavery and Theor Robinson this weekend, while captain and integral defender Niall Canavan is also expected to be absent. City's form is worryingly poor at present and with so many personnel potentially out, their five-game winless run could be extended by Rochdale.

Rochdale Team News

Defender Sam Graham is sidelined and won't feature this weekend, though Rochdale have a relatively clean bill of health elsewhere. The Dale lost their Greater Manchester Derby clash with bottom club Oldham at the weekend and they will be determined to bounce back against Bradford to appease their disgruntled supporters.
