We said: Barrow 1-1 Bradford City

Barrow's poor winning record makes it difficult to imagine the hosts earning victory on Wednesday, and their goalscoring record means it is unlikely they will score more than once. However, the Bluebirds have proven themselves capable of grinding out draws in the league, including against the Bantams in early December, so expect another low-scoring stalemate on New Year's Day.
