Bradford City vs Wycombe Wanderers
EFL Trophy, KO: 20:00 Feb 21, 2024, University of Bradford Stadium
Bradford City and Wycombe Wanderers square off in the EFL Trophy semi-final. Bradford have impressed in recent weeks and given their penchant for giant killing in this competition, they will fancy their chances of seeing off Wycombe, who have struggled on their recent travels.
Bradford City have impressed in this year’s EFL Trophy as they have won every single fixture, claiming some big scalps along the way. They reached the semi-final after claiming a 1-0 victory over Doncaster Rovers with Harrison Chapman netting the only goal.
The good form is not just limited to the EFL Trophy as Bradford City are unbeaten in their last five matches across all competitions. They have claimed four wins in that run and head into Wednesday’s clash off the back of a 1-0 victory over Sutton United in a League Two fixture last weekend.
Bradford City have also done some good work in front of their fans with three wins from their last four home matches. Among their EFL Trophy results at the University of Bradford Stadium is a 5-1 victory over League One side Barnsley.
Wycombe Wanderers have also had a solid EFL Trophy campaign, winning every single fixture so far. They secured a place in Wednesday’s clash after claiming a 4-1 quarter-final victory over Brighton U21.
While things have been smooth for Wycombe Wanderers in the EFL Trophy, they do not head into the semi-final in the best form. They are winless in their last two matches and were held to a 0-0 draw by Oxford United in a League One fixture last weekend.
Wycombe Wanderers have also struggled on their travels, picking up just one win from their last eight away matches across all competitions. They have lost two of the last three in that run and were beaten 2-1 by Bolton Wanderers in their previous fixture on the road.
