Both teams have new signing's in their squads. Leandre Giffit will make his debut in for Andy Monkhouse who is due to undergo surgery on his knee, which according to rumours has annoyed the Millers boss Alan Knill by the timing of the op, it was hoped that it would have been sorted during the summer.

Chris Swailes is expected to be fit after injury and fellow defender Martin McIntosh should also be in the squad after coming through a reserve outing against Barnsley.

Martin Butler has been ill and missed training on Wednesday, although it was as a precaution and its hoped that he will be fit to partner Will Hoskins up front.

Burnley have just signed Ipswich striker Dean Bowditch on a months loan, and its expected he will take Ady Akinbiyi's place in the starting line up, after Akinbiyi was sent off after just 2 minutes into his debut he will face 3 games out. On-Loan striker Peter Whittingham will play his last game on loan for the Clarets.
