Bradford City form and stats

There's been little loot from Bradford City's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 8 away games in the League Two. Bradford City only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws.

There might be some fixture complaints from Bradford as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, 1-4 against Milton Keynes Dons. That defeat was their first after three consecutive league rounds winning points. It's a bit worrying for Bradford City that their goalie Lewis made seven saves in the Milton Keynes Dons fixture, but still couldn't stop a loss.

Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Wrexham.

After this away game Bradford City return home for a EFL Trophy game against Manchester City U21. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Bradford have conceded 12 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
