Two players out for Dale trip to Bradford

Date published: 15/02/2008

Keith Hill's side will take on Bradford City without two key members of his squad, as both Kallum Higginbotham and Nathan Stanton will be forced to sit out the game due to suspension.

Stanton has accepted the extra ban following his dismissal at Mk Dons whilst Higginbotham reached five yellow cards during last weekend's defeat at Lincoln City.

Bradford City will be at full strength with manager Stuart McCall having a full squad at his disposal, other than Mark Bower.
 
McCall was in the stands as Dale slipped up against Hereford on Tuesday, their third successive loss. However, he will still be wary of Dale's impressive away form - although Dale lost away at Lincoln last weekend, they won all four away games in January, including at table topping MK Dons, and putting four past Chesterfield and Chester.
