MATCH PREVIEWS: CREWE ALEXANDRA VS BRADFORD CITY – CREWE FACE AWAY TIE

Crewe Alexandra will aim to rise to the occasion when they visit Bradford City on Saturday (3pm). The Bantams regularly draw crowds of more than 15,000 people and a partisan atmosphere is expected for our third away game of the season. Alex Morris’s men will be trying to make it three games unbeaten but expect a tough task against a City side undefeated at home.

Bradford City are comfortably the biggest club in the fourth tier and are now embarking on a fourth attempt to start a climb back up the pyramid. They have taken six points from the last nine on offer, and start the game lying 11th in the standings – three points below Crewe. Manchester United legend Mark Hughes has managed at the highest level with the likes of Manchester City, Blackburn, Fulham and the Welsh national side. After almost four years out of the game, he took the Bantams job in February and is now starting his first full season in charge at Valley Parade.

The aftermath of the disallowed goal was a protest from the Charlton Athletic players to the match officials led by centre referee Robert Lewis.
