David Wetherall will make his final home appearance for Bradford against MK Dons.
The veteran central defender will hang up his boots at the end of the season to take up a coaching role at the club.
Wetherall will line up alongside Mark Bower in central defence, while player of the year Joe Colbeck will take his place on the wing.
Young defender Luke O'Brien is expected to retain his place at full-back and striker Peter Thorne will partner Omar Daley up front.
Manager Stuart McCall, who has no new injury or suspension problems, revealed midfielder Martin Bullock is back in training, but will not be included in the squad.
The Bantams, who have lost only one of their last eight league matches, are chasing back-to-back wins.
MK Dons manager Paul Ince could have winger Craig Dobson available for the first time as the Dons seek a record-equalling win.
The Dons clinched promotion to League One last weekend with a 3-2 win at Stockport and a win would equal Doncaster's haul of 18 league away wins in the 1946/47 season.
Dobson has yet to make his debut for the club since signing from Stevenage in January thanks to a persistent groin injury but came through a reserve game in midweek and could travel.
Defender Drissa Diallo remains sidelined with a shoulder injury while midfielder Colin Cameron will miss the rest of the season after a knee injury.
Midfielder Paul Mitchell is back in training after 14 months out with a broken leg as the Dons look to clinch the League Two title.
