MATT Duke has something on his CV that City would kill for – a clean sheet at Stamford Bridge.

The goalkeeping hero behind the 2013 Capital One Cup adventure kept Chelsea at bay six years ago in a goalless draw with Hull.

Duke recalled: “I wasn’t as busy as you’d expect. They had an early chance when I made a save (from Quaresma) and John Terry missed an open goal.

“But they didn’t put us under that much pressure and we could have even nicked a 1-0 at the end.

“Felipe Scolari got sacked straight afterwards but it was a fantastic result for us trying to stay in the league.”

Ben Williams is likely to have a far heavier workload when the Bantams face up to the best home record in the country tomorrow.

But if anyone can give him tips on how City can defy the overwhelming odds, it’s Duke. Wigan, Arsenal and Aston Villa will testify to that.

Duke added: “He’s going to have plenty to do and Bradford have got to hope he has one of those days when everything sticks. Playing Chelsea you’ll need your keeper to have a good game.

“It will be like against Arsenal and Aston Villa. As the goalkeeper, you are constantly in the game.

“But honestly, I think it’s easier to play in one of those games than when you’re not really involved and suddenly get called upon to make a save in the last minute.

“Everybody will be concentrating that little bit extra because they will be extra busy. But fingers crossed, they can put on a really good performance.

“At the end of the day, it’s 11 v 11. But you need everybody firing on all cylinders and Chelsea to have a bit of an off day.

“But what a fantastic day it’s going to be for the club and the fans. Stamford Bridge is a superb stadium and you’re playing against the best team in the Premier League.”

Duke, now at Northampton, became a national figure with his heroics on the way to Wembley two seasons ago. That team were not fazed by the big occasions.

“That’s the key to take everything in your stride. We did that before and there are still players at the club from that time.

“If for one moment you stop and start to think about playing such a great team in those surroundings then you’ve lost the game.

“Enjoy the day by all means but when the football’s rolling, you just have to get on with your job like any other Saturday.

“You also hope for that bit of luck, especially when you are massive underdogs. We had it that night against Arsenal when Gervinho missed the ball in front of goal and the rest is history.

“The gulf in class is massive – but Bradford have been there before.”

Duke remains a keen Sheffield United fan and their appearance in the Capital One Cup semi-finals this week has further rekindled those memories from two seasons ago.

“Seeing them playing Tottenham and Bradford going to Chelsea, there’s part of me thinking ‘I wouldn’t have minded a bit of that’.

“These are the games to be part of and the ones you will always remember. It’s a fantastic experience as a player.

“It’s good exposure as well. People watch the games and realise what good players there are in the lower leagues.

“Before the cup run in 2013, most probably only thought of Bradford for relegation down the divisions and the fire disaster. This is positive publicity again.”
