The visiting Bradford City side should be favourites in this visit to Morecambe, as the away team holds a 14 point advantage from their twelve league games this season.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Morecambe form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the League Two this season. Morecambe, who have the most conceded goals (24) in League Two, have only managed 0 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses from their games here at Globe Arena.

The fans are hoping that Morecambe will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the League Two game against Port Vale (placed 10th). The points were shared before that, a EFL Trophy home game that ended 2-2 versus Wolves U21.

The Morecambe fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 6 matches. Morecambe have conceded 10 from these games.
