Bradford City's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. Bantams have conceded a disappointing 7 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.

Bradford City are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 11 points from 11 matches. Cheltenham T.'s total of 17 points from their 11 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Npower League Two.
