Duo braced for Bantams returns

31 December 2010 08:00
Bradford central defenders Steve Williams and Shane Duff could feature at Lincoln. Williams (groin) returned as an unused substitute in Tuesday's 4-0 defeat at Cheltenham and Duff (Achilles) travelled but was not included in the matchday squad. Williams has been out since early November while Duff last appeared for the Bantams on October 2. Winger Omar Daley missed the defeat at Cheltenham and remains very doubtful due to a knee injury sustained in training. Midfielder Lee Hendrie is pushing for a recall to the starting line-up and striker Gareth Evans, who impressed in his first appearance in three months following a fractured wrist, is expected to retain his place in the side. Bradford have won only one of their last four league matches and have slipped back down the table to 16th.
