Bradford City take on the visitors Notts County in the round 36 match of English League 2. The match will be played on Tuesday, February 19th at Valley Parade (Bradford)
Bradford City are trying to achieve more than last season. The Bantams even reached the Premier League at the turn of the century but couldn't establish themselves there. On the contrary, there was a rapid decline all the way to the fourth division. They managed to climb back to League 1 from there, but not for long, facing another relegation. There were hopes of going higher in 2023. They managed to cling to the top 6, but in the first round of the playoffs, the Citizens lost to Carlisle United. Things weren't going well for a while, but since Graham Alexander took over as manager in November, there has been progress, and a nice unbeaten streak started in winter. The 1-5 loss to Mansfield Town in the last round was particularly surprising.

Notts County may be pleased with how this football year is going. The Magpies became well-known over a decade and a half ago. At that time, attracted by their unofficial but quite objective status as the oldest club in Britain and Europe, Middle Eastern investors became interested in the project. Under the guidance of Eriksson, with Sol Campbell and a young Kasper Schmeichel in the squad, the team managed to improve but faltered, failing to even reach the Championship. Last season, under new ownership, the project spent time in the semi-amateur National League. Finishing second there and winning the additional playoff, the Black and Whites climbed to League 2. There, the newcomer regularly manages to win and accumulate points firmly, thus establishing itself in the middle of the table. It seems the team has decided that it has accomplished its goals, as it has been losing to almost everyone since February. Only with Accrington Stanley did they manage a 1-1 draw.
The teams played each other for the first time since 2015 in November. The Magpies won 4-2 then. The hosts need to redeem themselves for the setback in the last round, and they are facing the underdog. Let's bet on a win for the Bantams.
Prediction for the match: Bradford City to win.
