Bradford will bid farewell to Joe Vagana as he makes his final appearance at the Grattan Stadium against Hull KR on Monday.
The veteran prop forward has announced his decision to retire at the end of the current season.
He will lead the Bulls out as they look for a win to secure sixth place in Super League and a place in the play-offs.
The club's media manager Stuart Duffy said: "Joe has been a tremendous servant not only to the club but also to the city of Bradford itself and I am sure everyone who he has met during his time with the club will want to come along and see him for one last time."
Hull KR coach Justin Morgan, meanwhile, is urging his players to make another huge effort as they look to pinch sixth place from the Bulls.
Rovers need to win to take the battle for a play-off place into the final weekend of the regular season - the local derby with Hull.
Morgan told the Hull Daily Mail: "I expect the players to leave nothing in the tank because that is a given with any game.
"The pressure is on Bradford to keep their top six spot and if we win then we can take the season to the final game.
"But win, lose or draw, the last game of the season promises to be a meaningful game because it is the derby at Craven Park."
Bradford 19-man squad: Cook, Langley, Halley, Vagana, Sykes, Lynch, Harris, Newton, Evans, Deacon, Solomona, Crookes, Godwin, Kopczak, Jeffries, Tadulala, Finnigan, Johnson, Nero
Hull KR 19-man squad: Briscoe, Fox, Welham, Webster, Steel, Galea, Dobson, Mills, Fisher, Aizue, Vella, Lovegrove, Gene, Cooke, Crossman, Cockayne, K Netherton, Watts, J Netherton
