Michael Boulding could make his first start for Bradford in the Carling Cup clash at League One outfit Huddersfield Town on Tuesday evening.The summer signing is working his way back from an ankle injury and came off the bench in the Bantams' opening-day win over Notts County.

Manager Stuart McCall must decide whether to stick with two-goal Peter Thorne alongside Barry Conlon in attack for the trip to face their local rivals or hand Boulding a full debut.

McCall will still be without winger Joe Colbeck through suspension and another summer signing, Chris Brandon, will remain sidelined for several weeks with an ankle injury.

TJ Moncur, signed on loan from Fulham until January in time to appear in the second half on Saturday, will be hoping to start and striker Willy Topp could also feature.
