January has not been especially kind to Rochdale, who have lost Jake Beesley, Aaron Morley and potentially Corey O'Keeffe, with the replacements for at least two of those players likely to come from the existing personnel. Bradford City, meanwhile, have bolstered their squad with the addition of Jamie Walker from Hearts, who Derek Adams hopes can be the jewel in his side's crown, much like Graham Carey had been for his Plymouth Argyle side, but the technical wide man will need to be freed somewhat from the defensive demands. Having secured two wins in three, the Bantams are hoping they can still challenge for the playoffs, but that ship may have sailed for their hosts. 0:2
Luke Charman, signed from Darlington, will compete with Josh Andrews to start up top after top goalscorer Jake Beesley went to Blackpool. Aidy White could start at left wing-back in the absence of Jimmy Keohane. Andy Cook and Yann Songo'o could come into Derek Adams' XI for Charles Vernam and Jamie Walker. Abo Eisa is absent for the next three months.
