Match Preview

Jackson and Holdsworth ponder fresh faces Bradford boss Peter Jackson is set to make changes for the visit of Aldershot. Jackson saw the Bantams sucked back into the relegation picture after a 3-0 hammering at Accrington on Saturday and was livid with his side. He said: "I feel some players are letting us down and they are letting us down at the wrong time of the season. "We don't have many options to change things around but we have to regroup and make sure we don't panic." Winger Kevin Ellison is hoping to return into contention after a thigh injury but midfielder Tom Adeyemi is unavailable with a thigh strain of his own. Jackson has options to freshen up his starting XI with the likes of Luke O'Brien, Gareth Evans, Scott Dobie and Lee Bullock all available. Aldershot boss Dean Holdsworth could also make changes for the clash. Holdsworth saw his side's faint play-off hopes ended with a 2-1 defeat to Burton at the weekend and the manager may take the chance to take a look at some of his squad players. The likes of Wade Small, Doug Bergqvist and Tim Sills are all hoping for a rare start. Captain Anthony Charles was due to make his 350th career appearance on Saturday but missed out through illness and is a doubt to recover in time for Monday, meaning Clayton Fortune could well start again. Forward Jack Randall broke his leg while on loan at Didcot Town recently and is a long-term absentee.

Match Report

Syers seals crucial win for Bantams David Syers scored a dramatic last-gasp winner to give Bradford a 2-1 victory over Aldershot which all but ends their relegation worries. There was just a minute of normal time remaining when midfielder Syers headed the ball into the net from Gareth Evans' corner to settle the nerves of the home fans on an anxious day at Valley Parade. The result leaves Bradford six points above the drop zone with just two matches to play. Winger Omar Daley gave the home side a great start with a goal after four minutes - a superb 25-yard shot which curled into the far corner of the net. James Hanson then came close to increasing the home side`s lead after 27 minutes only to see his shot hit a post. However Aldershot were always dangerous on the break and, after Alex Rodman hit the woodwork, the visitors deservedly equalised with a smart low shot from Peter Vincenti after Rodman's shot was blocked. There were narrow escapes at both ends bore Syers' timely late goal ended Bradford's run of four matches without a win as they took a giant step towards ensuring their League Two survival.
