Duffy set for Wrexham bow
New loan signing Rob Duffy could make his Wrexham debut when Bradford travel to the Racecourse Ground.
Duffy formally completed his month-long move from Oxford on Friday and the striker could slot straight into Brian Little's side as they bid to secure back-to-back wins after their shock success over leaders MK Dons last weekend.
The 25-year-old, however, will miss the trip to Morecambe next week as he serves a one-game ban after incurring his fifth booking of the season in Oxford's 2-0 defeat at Exeter last Sunday.
Stuart Nicholson, on loan from West Brom, impressed on his debut against the Dons and would appear likely to lead the line once again, but a hamstring injury will prevent midfielder Paul Hall from playing any part.
Midfielder Sam Aiston is finally over an ankle problem and could return to the matchday 16 while long-term absentees Eifion Williams (hamstring) and Danny Williams (back) remain ruled out.
Bradford
Bradford striker Peter Thorne is a major doubt, but new loan signing Ben Starosta is in contention for his debut.
Thorne was forced off after an hour in Tuesday night's draw at Bury due to a neck problem sustained earlier in the week.
Bantams manager Stuart McCall is expected to play winger Omar Daley in a more central attacking role alongside Barry Conlon if Thorne fails to make it.
Starosta, a former Poland Under-20 international, offers McCall an extra option at full-back after arriving from Sheffield United, while Alex Rhodes could replace Daley on the wing.
Striker Eddie Johnson will be hoping to play some part after sitting on the bench at Bury as Bradford look to extend their unbeaten league run to four matches.
