Tony McMahon and James Meredith face late fitness tests for Accrington tie

Bradford pair Tony McMahon and James Meredith both face late fitness tests before the home FA Cup tie against Accrington.

McMahon, who has not featured since August, had a minor setback in training as he returns from a thigh injury and Meredith has been sidelined for three games due to an ankle problem.

On-loan Newcastle forward Haris Vuckic is hoping to be given permission to play by his parent club and defender Rory McArdle could return to the starting line-up.

Boss Stuart McCall, who has no new injury or suspension problems, could also hand starts to the likes of Filipe Morais, Mark Marshall and Nathan Clarke.

Accrington striker Billy Kee is back in contention ahead of the trip to Valley Parade.

Kee missed the last three games after sustaining a bang to the head, but has been in training this week.

Boss John Coleman has said he has one or two knocks in the squad, without mentioning names.

And it would appear one of those affected is midfielder John O'Sullivan, who tweeted "injury injury injury" on Thursday.
