Colchester will check on the fitness of Alan Judge ahead of the Sky Bet League Two game at home to Bradford.

Judge has missed the last two matches after picking up a knock during the draw with Carlisle earlier this month.

Freddie Sears returned from a minor knock in the weekend defeat at Stockport and played the full 90 minutes.
