Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest we don't have an obvious winner for this clash, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that Chesterfield and Bradford will score 2 or more goals between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Paul Cook or Graham Alexander has suffered the frustration of many 0-0s lately either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.29 equating to roughly a 74% probability.
