Team News..
Visitors Burton have Tony James replacing Nathan Stanton at centre-half while fellow defender Ryan Austin is also available after injury.

Midfielder Adam Bolder misses out with a dislocated shoulder.

The Millers pick from the same squad as last weeks loss at Shrewsbury minus Tom Elliott who is again injured, he's likely to be replaced by the returning Tom Pope who will return to the subs bench after a lenghty lay off and scoring twice for the reserves in midweek.

Jeremiah Ani and Paul Warne are fighting for the starting birth left by Elliott to partner Adam Le Fondre.

Mark Bradley also returns after International duty with Wales but Ryan Taylor is still not quite ready to return to action.
