Head2Head & Team News - Yeovil Town (H)

After dropping a few points last month, Rotherham could badly do with a home win as the gap was once again closed on them at the foot of the table last weekend.

Our visitors sit in seventh spot in League One after falling away slightly after their flying start. They do however arrive with only one league defeat in nine on the road this season, with six of those ending all square.

What's more they are set to boosted by the return of influential skipper Terry Skiverton (right). The centre half missed last weekend's home defeat to Scunthorpe with discomfort in his ankle tendon. His defensive partner Paul Terry, brother of England and Chelsea captain John, is also fit to play after turning an ankle in training this week.

Striker Marcus Stewart won't feature as his loan spell from Bristol City ran out after last week's game. The 34 year-old has returned to Ashton Gate as respective chairman's negotiate a fee for a permanent move.

Meanwhile winger Andy Lindegaard is improving steadily at Lilleshall but is still a long way off action after tearing a groi muscle in the first month of the campaign. In his absence the club have extended the loan deal of Martin Brittain. The winger's deal was due to expire today but Ipswich Town have reached an agreement to extend his spell. The former Newcastle player joined the Glovers last month.

Last time out for the Glovers in the 2-0 defeat to Scunthorpe:

Mildenhall, Lynch, Forbes, Cranie, Jones (Gray 83), Brittain, Terry, Barry (Best 46), Cohen, Davies (Morris 67), Stewart.
Subs Not Used: Kalala, Thomas.

Booked: Terry.

In contention

The Millers may make a couple of changes from the 1-0 loss at Gillingham, with Michael Keane (left) putting pressure on Justin Cochrane, Eugen Bopp and Martin Woods. The only other expected change could be that Gregor Robertson keeps his place at left back after coming on for Paul Hurst at half time last week. Alan Knill's match preview will be on the site tomorrow evening.


Here's the Head2Head for you to cast your eyes over, we're sure it won't take you too long as this is only the fourth ever meeting between the two!
