Phil Parkinson will decide in the morning whether Kyel Reid is right to play in City's home clash with Southend.
The winger became a dad at lunchtime after his girlfriend gave birth to a baby boy. He was travelling back up to Bradford tonight from London.
Parkinson said: "I am really pleased for Kyel. His girlfriend has been in hospital all week awaiting the birth but fortunately everything has turned out well.
"After spending some time with his new son, Kyel is heading up tonight and we'll have a look at him tomorrow morning.
"We'll assess his fitness and his physical state and then make a decision on whether he will feature in the squad or not.
"He hasn't trained all week, which is obviously a concern. But we'll get him in early and have a good look at him."
