Best Tip: Bradford to win

Studying the bookmakers' odds and collated stats regarding both teams ahead of this League Two match, a bet on win / draw / win for Bradford to win and delight their home supporters is what we would suggest. We predict they'll overpower Tranmere, and head-to-head (H2H) records show they have done in the past. It could be a tighter than we expect, but Bradford claiming victory is the bet come Saturday afternoon.
