Bradford City will be looking to move level at the top of League Two with victory at Darlington, live on Sky Sports 1. The hosts will be without defender Tim Ryan for the game after he was sent off in the 1-1 draw with Wycombe on Saturday. Ryan begins a three-match ban, so Ian Miller or Ryan Valentine will be hoping to be given the nod to start in his place. Liechtenstein international Franz Burgmeier returned to the starting line-up at the weekend but may be rested after winning his 150th cap last week. Striker Pawel Abbott is the Quakers' only injury absentee as he recovers from a serious ankle injury, while Ricky Ravenhill is back in contention after a ban.

Bradford news

Bradford manager Stuart McCall will be without defender Mark Bower for the match due to a thigh injury. Winger Omar Daley came through the full 90 minutes of the 2-2 draw with Gillingham on Saturday after playing for Jamaica in midweek and McCall will make a late decision on whether he can handle three games in five days. However, Kyle Nix or Barry Conlon are waiting to fill in if required. McCall picked up no fresh injuries against the Gills but after seeing his side blow a two-goal lead may make changes for the trip to the fellow promotion hopefuls.
