 The mid-league cup defeat won't affect our confidence, says Mark Hughes. Crew have made the best start in the league for 27 years, though. 10 points from four games as they look for an instant return to league one. Both sides making one change today for Bradford. Gilead is replaced with East for Crew King. Makes his debut with Brookhout. University of Bradford Stadium is filled. The wets. Smallwards. Dropping into the field to find Halliday in space. And they're looking for the give-and-go. It's Banks who picks up the ball here. Palace-Loney looking to cause some problems here for Crew. Nice looking ball into the area. Locks over the top of the crossbar with a warning shot fired for this crew defence. Banks has made a bright start to life at Bradford. Carved out the opportunity here. It's easy for Bradford to find spaces in midfield. And a Chapman on towards Banks. And he goes, Banks looking for that far corner. Not too far away from finding it. The crossbar will smartly down to push away and around the post. And again, it's Banks that Bradford are looking for as they search for the opening goal. Real pressure here on the Bradford midfield. Works up towards Cook. Hasn't had much of a chance to get into the game. Often doesn't need many chances. Banks again, allowed to travel. Banks goes for goal, and Rattles would work. So nearly the breakthrough that Bradford have been searching for. Scott Banks. He goes free in the attention of the crew defence. Would work to the rescue for crew. Harry Lewis. Been a bystander in the game so far. Ryan East with space. Fabulous ball. Might be a chance here. The opening would have been a fabulous effort if he'd hit the target. Brilliantly controlled after an excellent ball from Ryan East. Still searching though for the opener here, Bradford. Haven't seen many crew attacks. Launched into the penalty area, and they have won a corner. Ailey has 250th appearance for the clock today. Sends one to the back of the area, and he picks out. His teammate unmarked, but the header is fairly far wide in the end of Harry Lewis' left hand post. No real trouble here for the Bradford goalkeeper. As his teammate here, Bradford though, give the ball straight back to crew. Both fans starting to show concern here. Mones around the grounds. As forward comes Mellor, crossing opportunity here for crew. Should be cleared away. And there's, although the most convincing clearance away by Bradford. Eventually they do win the throwing. Forward on the right-hand side. Richardson was looking for the shove in the middle. Nice drop at the shoulder from Ailey. Can't step away though from the presence of Bradford's midfields. Picked up here by Wackwai. Wackwai looking to create, looking for space. Somehow manages to keep the ball. Wackwai again, back to Ailey. Nice football by crew. Well, it's their best chance of the game. Comfortable stop in the end for Harry Lewis, who pushes away to safety. Much better though from the away side. Bradford back off. Ailey forces Harry Lewis into a save. Room here for Smallwood. But by King, Bradford will go wide. Key and Harrod scuttling around, trying to make an impact off of the bench. Had a couple of chances for Bradford in the game. Struck the bar in the first half. And this time, had he hit that either side of a conco, could have been a different story. Ever a game needed a spark of life. This would be it. Crew might just have their chance to spark the game into life. Here goes Baker Richardson, fizzed over the top of the crossbar from a striker who's been in fine goalscoring form. It's a let-off for Bradford, who gave the ball away so easily here. Critchlow out of position. Baker Richardson couldn't find the target. Looking for the head of Baker Richardson, so often the target for crew when they're looking to attack. Comfortably turned away by Bradford. Now Smallwood, who, as is so often the case, uses the ball brilliantly. Chance to break out here towards the left-hand side. Young waits for sending the ball on. Gets it back here. Shifted wide. Ridles delivery to the back of the area. A conco's committed. Smuggled away to safety by Crew. Heart in mouth moment there for Crew as a goalkeeper. They're diving out from his goal line all towards Young, who is creeping around the back, sent out of play by Bradford. This moment here caused a few gasps inside the stadium. Critchlow to plait. Chance to come forward here for Halliday. Who could strike? Straight into rock McDonald, the defender across. Another chance here for Bradford, queuing up on the edge of the penalty area. Right all there. So, two key inherits. Too many back there. The penalty area packed with red shirts. This might be the chance. Big shout for a penalty. Once and twice. The initial appeal was for a foul. The second for a handball, but then Oliver goes down. And then Young claiming that the ball strikes an arm. No interest though from the referee. Now Adjie, who has got three at the Bradford defence. Half hearted appeal for a handball. Turned away by Bradford. Desperate defending after brilliant work here by Adjie. Combining well with Mella. Committed defending at the back from Bradford. League two in Baker Richardson and Andy Cook. They couldn't find a way through. It was a game of very few chances. Crew battled hard in the game. Bradford probably had the better chances and will look back and wonder how they didn't get themselves on the score sheet here. Finishes Bradford nil, crew nil.
