Match Preview
Jones absent for Bantams Bradford will be without injured midfielder Ritchie Jones for their opening home league fixture against newly-promoted Fleetwood. Jones, who had been hoping to shake off a thigh strain in time for Saturday's defeat at Gillingham, twisted an ankle in training on Friday and could be sidelined for several weeks. Defender Andrew Davies is still struggling with a hamstring problem, but could be involved after stepping off the bench for the last seven minutes at Gillingham. Latest signing Zavon Hines is expected to start on the bench again following his arrival in time to face Gillingham, but gave manager Phil Parkinson plenty to think about, while striker Nahki Wells, introduced for the last half an hour on Saturday, is also pushing for a place in the starting line-up. Parkinson must decide on whether to retain Matt Duke in goal or recall Jon McLaughlin. Fleetwood manager Micky Mellon has a full squad to choose from. Northern Ireland international midfielder Damien Johnson was Mellon's only major doubt heading into the opening league stalemate against Torquay and he recovered from a calf problem to complete 90 minutes. The former Huddersfield man appreciates he will need to recover well in order to feature at Valley Parade. "I've only played at Valley Parade once or twice," Johnson told Fleetwood's official website. "It will be a tough game as Bradford are a big club. "I just need to rest up and make sure that I'm ready for Tuesday." Summer signing Steven Gillespie could push for a start in attack after the trio of David Ball, Jon Parkin and Andy Mangan drew blanks in consecutive home matches.
