Match Preview
No new worries for Spireites Chesterfield have no new problems for the visit of Bradford. The Spireites extended their lead at the top of League Two to six points with an impressive 2-0 victory at Gillingham on Tuesday night. Ian Breckin was rested in Kent after complaining of stiffness following the goalless draw at Shrewsbury but the experienced defender could come back into the team against the Bantams, with Danny Whitaker moving back into midfield. Veteran striker Jack Lester is another who could be in line for a recall, leaving boss John Sheridan with the dilemma of dropping either top scorer Craig Davies or on-loan forward Deane Smalley. Smalley, who has scored four goals in Chesterfield`s last five games, has extended his loan spell from Oldham until the end of the season. Bradford skipper Simon Ramsden could return to the squad following a long injury lay-off. Defender Ramsden, who has made only one appearance this season due to a hip problem, could be named on the substitutes' bench. Midfielder Michael Flynn made his first appearance of the season in an eight-minute cameo role in Tuesday's defeat at Crewe following a double hernia and he may also make the bench. The Bantams will be without midfielder Tommy Doherty, who will finally have surgery to remove a floating piece of bone from his ankle, but new signing Jon Worthington is expected to start again after making his debut on Tuesday. Manager Peter Taylor, whose side have lost their last four league games, could be tempted to recall Mark Cullen or Jake Speight in attack.

Match Report
Bowery earns Spireites draw Chesterfield preserved their unbeaten record in 2011 when substitute Jordan Bowery denied Bradford victory with a stoppage time equaliser in a 2-2 draw. Danny Whitaker put the home side ahead but goals from David Syers and James Hanson turned the game around before Bowery had the last word. Chesterfield began the game with the confidence of a team flying high at the top of League Two and were in front in the 10th minute. A slip let in Jack Lester and when the ball broke off the striker, Whitaker smashed in his 12th of the season from 10 yards. But Bradford replied two minutes later when Gareth Evans crossed from the left and Syers headed in his eighth of the season at the back post. The visitors took control and scored again in the 53rd minute when another cross by Evans was headed in by the unmarked James Hanson from eight yards. Bradford defended their lead skilfully but two minutes into added time, a header from Ian Breckin set up Bowery who fired under Jon McLaughlin.
