Phil Parkinson to shuffle pack for FA Cup clash with Chesham

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

Defender Reece Burke has missed the last five games due to a knee injury and remains doubtful, while left-back Greg Leigh is pushing for a recall after making way for James Meredith in last week's defeat at Walsall.

Midfielder Josh Morris suffered a setback this week in his bid to push on following a long-term knee injury as he was forced out of a reserve-team run-out and will not feature.

Strikers Jordan Bowery, on loan from Rotherham, and Devante Cole are both pushing for recalls, while Parkinson has no other new injury problems.

Chesham boss Andy Leese expects to have an almost fully-fit squad to choose from as the Southern League side look to pull off more knockout heroics.

The Generals secured a famous 1-0 win at Bristol Rovers in the first round with the help of 43-year-old former FA Cup semi-finalist Barry Hayles.

Hayles is expected to start on the bench against the Bantams while Nick Beasant - son of 1988 winner Dave Beasant - will start in defence.

Leese has reported no ill effects from the midweek FA Trophy replay win over Frome Town.
