Lincoln City vs Bradford City Team News & Lineups
Both managers have been active in the transfer market and dealing with suspensions, adding intrigue to the team sheets.
Lincoln City Team News
The big news for the Imps is the arrival of defender Deji Elerewe from Bromley. Sporting director Jez George praised his “outstanding physical attributes,” and he could be thrown straight into the squad. However, they are without goalkeeper Zach Jeacock, who is suspended following a red card.
Michael Skubala will likely stick with the core that beat Burton Albion, with Ben House and Jovon Makama expected to lead the line. The 4-2-3-1 formation has served them well, providing balance and attacking threat.
Predicted Lincoln XI (4-2-3-1):
Wickens; Darikwa, O’Connor, Elerewe, Roughan; Erhahon, McGrandles; Moylan, McKiernan, Makama; House.
Bradford City Team News
Graham Alexander was frustrated after the 1-0 loss to Huddersfield, citing a lack of “finishing touch.” He may tweak his tactical setup, potentially bringing in fresh legs to revitalize the attack. Andy Cook remains the primary goal threat, but he needs better service.
The Bantams are relatively injury-free but need a reaction. Alexander emphasized the need to “regroup properly” and not sulk, suggesting he demands a high-intensity performance from his players.
Predicted Bradford XI (3-4-2-1):
Walker; Diabate, Byrne, Kelly; Halliday, Smallwood, Pattison, Wright; Pointon, Sanderson; Cook.
