Weather permitting, Rotherham face a trip to Accrington Stanley at Fraser Eagle Stadium on Saturday afternoon, having the edge over their hosts in previous meetings. The visitors have won 10 of the 22 previous games, with the hosts winning just 9.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in December 2008, as the visitors ran out cosy 3-1 winners in a League Two match.
