We said: Bradford City 3-2 Harrogate Town

 Despite a decline in their form at the wrong time, Bradford City can still rely on the attacking exploits of the second-leading goalscorer in League Two this season in the form of Andy Cook. Considering this, The Bantams should have enough to secure a narrow victory over an improving Harrogate Town side in a tightly-contested affair at The University of Bradford Stadium. Read more.
