Bradford AFC vs Colchester United preview - Same squad for Bantams

Bradford manager Phil Parkinson is expected to select his side to face Colchester from the same squad that triumphed in the FA Cup at Chelsea.

Parkinson has no new injury or suspension worries following last week's upset, while goalkeeper Ben Williams is expected to make way for first-choice Jordan Pickford, on loan from Sunderland and ineligible for the cup.

Striker Billy Clarke stepped off the bench at Chelsea after recovering from a knee injury and is pushing for a recall, as is winger Mark Yeates, who scored the fourth goal as a substitute last week.

Bradford are bidding to climb back in the top six after losing their last two league matches.

Colchester will be without the suspended Elliott Hewitt following the defender's dismissal in last week's home win over Leyton Orient.

Hewitt, on loan from Ipswich, was shown a straight red card for his challenge on Romain Vincelot and starts a three-game ban.

Tom Lapslie made his first start for the club last week and boss Tony Humes must decide whether to stick with the teenager in central midfield or recall George Moncur.

Striker Chris Porter and defender Matthew Briggs, on loan from Millwall, are expected to start after making their debuts last week and on-loan forward Jack Marriott is hoping to make his first appearance after he was an unused substitute against Orient.
