Gary Bowyer to pick Bradford team for first time

New Bradford manager Gary Bowyer will pick the team for the first time on Saturday when Peterborough visit the Northern Commercials Stadium.

Bowyer was appointed on Monday following the departure of David Hopkin, with the Bantams in the Sky Bet League One relegation zone and six points adrift of safety.

Bowyer has already received some good news on the injury front, with Sean Scannell nearing a return from a fracture in his lower back.

Saturday’s game will come too soon but the winger, who has not featured since the start of October, could play in the next two weeks.

Peterborough striker Ivan Toney is available again after serving a one-match ban but he may have work to do to get back in the side.

His replacement Matt Godden scored twice in last week’s 4-2 win over Wycombe and is likely to keep his place in the side.

Siriki Dembele (knee) and Josh Knight (ankle) remain injury concerns.

Peterborough sit level on points with sixth-placed Doncaster as they look to force their way into the play-off places.
