Manager Chris Hutchings will pair strikers Robbie Blake with Dean Windass together in tonight's pre-season friendly at Grimby Town as he continues to ring the changes.

New signings Dan Petrescu, Peter Atherton, Ian Nolan and David Hopkin are all included in the side while goalkeeper Aidan Davison will be facing his old club.

City played a private practice match at Wigan Athletic yesterday and lost 1-0.

The team included Benfica's 25-year-old Portuguese international winger or striker Hugo Porfirio, but he was substituted.

City tried and failed to obtain international clearance for him to play in the public friendly at Altrincham.

"It was a disappointing performance by the boys and that didn't help Hugo," said manager Chris Hutchings.

Hutchings has chosen those who didn't play a full game at Wigan for tonight's match.

Bradford City (at Grimsby): Davison, Atherton, Nolan, O'Brien, Wetherall, Sharpe, Whalley, Hopkin, Petrescu, Blake, Windass. Subs: Clarke (gk), Grant, Rankin, Westwood, Lawrence, Halle.
