Bradford's wing-backs have delivered plenty of balls under Michael Duff, but their last box touch has often been missing. Peterborough can move the ball into wide areas and create volume, yet their recent final attempts have also been loose. This cup tie may have attacks at both ends without each side turning them into a goal.
O'Keeffe sent in repeated crosses at Oxford, with Jackson and Lapslie reaching chances that went unfinished. Peterborough had 18 shots and 14 corners at Bromley but only two efforts on target. Leonard played the full Bromley game and is suspended specifically for this cup tie; Ormerod has earlier cup goals but played only ten minutes in the latest match. Humphrys missed Bradford's Oxford game, while Neufville and Wright have not been verified back.
Bradford's back three can contest Peterborough's first delivery and press the next pass, while Peterborough's wide runners can still test the space outside the wing-backs. Both clubs have a route to territory, with the current finishing roles making a blank for either side a live match picture. That's why I'm siding with a result in which Bradford or Peterborough stays scoreless.
