Premium Tips

Andy is with Bradford, though goals are on the agenda.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Bradford to win and Kayden Jackson to score anytime4/1Bradford are at home against a Mansfield side that has been leaking badly, conceding 10 goals in four games, which gives the Bantams a real chance of three points and hands Jackson a golden opening. He is a proven lower-league marksman, with 25 goals at Ipswich and 15 at Accrington, and a regular Bradford starter, exactly the type to punish a soft defence.
Over 2.5 goals and both teams to score11/10Mansfield’s games have been goal-fests, with 18 goals across their four matches this season, eight scored and 10 conceded, so their leaky defence and busy attack make goals at both ends look very likely. Bradford score their share at home, and Mansfield clearly carry a threat going forward, so the ingredients for a lively, high-scoring afternoon are all there.

How Bradford go into the game

Bradford were beaten 2-1 by Cambridge last time out, a narrow home defeat. Valley Parade must roar them back to winning ways.

Well-backed and dangerous, Bradford will fancy their chances at home. A response is the aim.

How Mansfield go into the game

Mansfield thrashed Luton 5-2 last time out, a stunning attacking display. Confidence will be high heading to Bradford.

Free-scoring but leaky, Mansfield are a threat going forward. Backing up that win is the challenge.
