Bradford kicked off their league campaign in pretty strong fashion as they claimed two wins and two draws from their opening four games. However, since then things haven’t necessarily gone to plan with the team losing at home to Forest Green and then away to Crewe.
Northampton will also be searching for their third win of the season. Wins over Swindon and Plymouth leave the team in 17th spot – albeit we are still in the early stages of the season.
Keith Curle’s side are coming into this game on the back of a defeat after losing 2-0 to Peterborough in the EFL Trophy. Bradford, on the other hand, earned themselves two points following a win over Bolton in the penalty shoot-out.
Looking at the betting, it’s clear that the bookies are strongly behind the home side in this fixture. The Bantams have been made 11/10 favourites while Northampton have been priced at 12/5.
This game could prove to be a lot tighter than the bookies anticipate which is why our recommendation is to back a Bradford victory but both teams to score as well.
This is a bet that is priced at 7/2 and adds a lot of value to the outright price.

Bradford City to win and both teams to score – 7/2 bet365*
