Phil Parkinson could shuffle his pack ahead of Bradford's clash with Bury

Bradford boss Phil Parkinson could be tempted to make one or two changes for the visit of Bury.

Parkinson, who has no major new injury or suspension concerns, could recall James Hanson. The big striker stepped off the bench during Saturday's win at Doncaster following illness.

Parkinson made six changes at the weekend, while forward Luke James is hoping to shake off the illness that kept him out.

Josh Morris and Billy Clarke (both knee) stepped up their rehabilitation this week and hope to return to full training next week, while Filipe Morais (knee) remains a long-term absentee.

Chris Hussey will return to the Bury squad for the trip.

The left-back missed the derby clash with Rochdale on Saturday because of a one-game suspension incurred when he was dismissed in the 2-2 home draw with Wigan the previous weekend.

Captain Peter Clarke should be fine to feature in defence despite the centre-back receiving a blow to his nose in the 0-0 stalemate with Dale.

Bury are unbeaten in the league since August but remain without Kelvin Etuhu (leg), Andrew Tutte (hamstring), Daniel Nardiello (back), Ryan Lowe (calf) and Keil O'Brien (knee).
