We move into Round 2 of the Championship and visit promoted Hunslet on Sunday. Hunslet have plenty of former Bradford players/academy products in Billy Jowitt, Mackenzie Scurr, Keelan Foster, Coby Nichol, Ethan O'Hanlon and Bailey Arnold. This will be our first visit to Hunslet since 2018. Discuss the game here.

Few more changes again for me. I'd bring Ott in for Souter (we have to manage his minutes and I think the team who are most likely to finish bottom is the best team to do it against) I'd give Bailey Liu are a run out too. Hunslet were comfortably beaten by Barrow who you would expect would be their main rival for the relegation spot. Realistically I can't see this being anything other than comfortable.

Should be a decent day weather wise I think too. I'd like to see how we go on a dry track.

Hopping this over from the other thread, but maybe have Sam Ackroyd on the bench? If he isn't getting a game against Hunslet, we might as well send him out on loan. I imagine we'll bring back Keyes, Okenbor, and Lawrence - and perhaps give Souter and Donaldson a rest.

They will want to keep as much of the spine together as possible
