Rotherham U. prepare to entertain Preston North End at Millmoor Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Merry Millers are clearly on top, having won 12 and lost only 3 of the 21 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Millmoor Ground was just last season, in August 2002, when they played out a goalless draw in a League Division One match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Rotherham U. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Merry Millers will at least gain a draw. Score draw
