Notts County will be looking to bounce back from a 1-0 defeat to Crewe Alexandra when they take on Bradford Cityon Saturday afternoon in the League Two.
The Magpies come into the weekend looking to avoid three straight defeats having endured a slight dip in recent weeks after their fine start to the League Two campaign on their return to England's fourth tier this term.
The hosts currently sit fifth in League Two after 17 games with 30 points, three points from the automatic promotion spots.
Bradford City, on the other hand, sit 18th in League Two with just 20 points, seven above the relegation zone, amid a dismal 2023/24 campaign to date. It has not been an easy start to life at Valley Parade for recently appointed manager Graham Alexander.
The Bantams have gone four League Two games without a win, with their last three fixtures resulting in defeat, including losses at struggling Tranmere, bottom club Sutton United, and most recently to Barrow.

Notts County boss Luke Williams has only one big injury concern to deal with currently as Matt Palmer's knee injury will keep him out for the rest of the season.
