Bradford City host Doncaster Rovers at the University of Bradford Stadium on late Tuesday on the back of three consecutive wins in League Two.
Bradford have picked up 11 points from their last six games, and they face a Rovers side who lost their last match, and have collected the same number of points from the last possible 18.
In the last 10 years, Bradford and Doncaster have played each other on 14 occasions. Bradford won seven of them, Doncaster five, and they drew twice.
On average, the Bantams scored 1.2 goals and the Rovers 0.9 in those matches.
Their last meeting was on January 30, when Bradford won 1-0 at home.
Doncaster are 20th in the table after 34 games, of which they have won 11 and drawn six, earning 39 points.
Bradford are five places ahead of Rovers in 15th, with 12 wins and 10 draws putting them on 46 points.
With 41 goals in 33 games so far this season, City are scoring at below the league average rate with 1.2 goals per game. But they are conceding fewer than average too, letting in 39 goals at a rate of 1.2 per game.
The Rovers are also below average scorers, with 1.3 goals per game, compared to a league average of 1.5. They have conceded 1.8 goals per game.
Bradford’s last match was on February 17, a 1-0 win against Sutton United, with Calum Kavanagh getting the goal for the Bantams.
Doncaster lost 3-1 against Walsall last time out, on Saturday, with Kyle Hurst on the scoresheet.
Tuesday’s match will be refereed by Peter Wright, who has taken charge of 11 League Two games so far this season, issuing one red card and booking 51 players. He has awarded two penalties.
The last Bradford game Wright refereed was a 1-0 away loss to Crewe Alexandra on January 1. His last Doncaster match was their 0-0 draw away at Accrington Stanley on December 9.
