Recent respective form guides

Bradford City will be hoping to improve on their poor home form, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While Bantams have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Luton Town's away form is none too clever either, unbeaten in their last six, consisting of three wins and three draws. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the The Hatters, and 6 goals against.

Bradford City lie just outside the playoff positions in the Coca-Cola League One, picking up 48 points from their 32 games so far. Luton Town are leading the way in the Coca-Cola League One, with their 32 games giving them a return of 66 points.
