Bradford boss Phil Parkinson to pick from same squad against Sheffield United

Bradford boss Phil Parkinson has no major new selection issues and could name an unchanged starting XI for the third successive game against Sheffield United.

Parkinson stuck with the same side that recently won at Oldham for last week's draw at Fleetwood, but several players are pushing for recalls.

Summer signings Lee Evans, Paul Anderson and Steven Davies all impressed Parkinson after making late appearances off the bench at Fleetwood and will be hoping for bigger roles.

Defender Tony McMahon, an unused substitute last week, is hoping to feature against his former club, while Billy Clarke and Davies are both ex-Blades.

Sheffield United striker Che Adams could return to contention after illness, but midfielder Ryan Flynn remains doubtful.

Teenager Adams has played no part in the Blades' last three matches and Flynn missed Tuesday night's home defeat to Colchester due to a groin injury.

Jose Baxter returned to the starting line-up following suspension in midweek and should continue, while teenage midfielder Louis Reed is hoping for a recall after dropping to the bench.

Midfielder Stefan Scougall plus forwards Marc McNulty and Michael Higdon all stepped off the bench in midweek and are also in contention to start.
