Bradford City welcome Stevenage at The University of Bradford Stadium, Bradford, West Yorkshire on Saturday, Oct 17 at 4:00 PM in a League 1 fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Bradford City come into this fixture in good form (3W 0D 2L recently). Stevenage travel in mixed form (2W 2D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Bradford City won their last outing, while Stevenage suffered defeat — home advantage backed by momentum.

History strongly favours Bradford City here — they've won 7 of 10 previous meetings against Stevenage, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Stevenage won 1–0.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Bradford City a slight edge, but Stevenage are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
