- KO: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
- Venue: Valley Parade
Valley Parade is the venue for a League One encounter on Tuesday evening as Bradford takes on Lincoln City.
Bradford have been in excellent form at home, and will fancy their chances of picking up the points against a Lincoln City side that has been beaten in two of their last three league fixtures.
Set for their first meeting since 2021, and only their third in 14 years, the Bantams are priced up as narrow favourites to claim victory against the Imps on Tuesday.

Bradford team overview
Bradford return to League One action after a 1:1 draw against Stevenage on Saturday. Neill Byrne's early goal helped secure a decent away point for Graham Alexander´s side.
The Bantams have been in great form at home, picking up five wins and one draw from six League One games this season. While Bradford have been held to draws in two of their last three games, they remain unbeaten in their last six fixtures since an EFL Cup defeat against Newcastle. The hosts now sit third in League One, behind league leaders Cardiff on goal difference only.
One of the most consistent choices for goal chasers this season, Bradford have seen BTTS in 14 of their last 16 matches while all but two of their last 12 matches across all competitions finished with over 2.5 goals scored.
Head coach Alexander is unlikely to make too many alterations from the side that started Saturday's draw with Stevenage. Injured duo Ciaran Kelly and Calum Kavanagh remain sidelined.

Lincoln City team overview
Lincoln City make the trip to Valley Parade looking to bounce back to winning form after a narrow 1:0 defeat at Leyton Orient last weekend.
A strong start to the season has seen Michael Skubala´s side win ten and lose only three of their last 16 games.
While the Imps are not a reliable choice in the goal markets, the visitors usually get on the scoresheet. Lincoln City scored at least one goal in all but two of their last 14 games across all competitions.
City boss Skubala could make some alterations to his selection on Tuesday. James Collins and Justin Obikwu are tipped to earn recalls to the first XI at Valley Parade.

Prediction
Goals can usually be expected when Bradford City are in action, and I'm confident we will see goals at both ends on Tuesday.
BTTS is my preferred pick at Valley Parade.
Three Reasons Why We Expect BTTS
- Bradford have seen BTTS in 14 of their last 16 matches
- Bradford have seen BTTS in 6 of their last 7 home matches
- Lincoln City have seen BTTS in 3 of their last 5 matches against Bradford
