Head2Head & Team News - Bury (A)

Last updated : 22 October 2008 By Deano
The Millers head into tonight's game having only won once on their travels in League Two, but with only three goals against and one defeat also, it might be a tight affair.

The four goals leaked against Barnet at the weekend must surely be a blip in Mark Robins' sides great start to the season, but with the Shakers in fine form themselves and pushing for promotion this time around, former Millers boss Alan Knill will have his team bang at it.

Team wise, Robins picks from the same squad as Saturday but could well recall Danny Harrison into midfield. His other dilemma is upfront with Mark Burchill and Ritchie Barker pushing for starts. Robbo told the BBC: "There is options there, that's what we brought the squad in for."

Knill has former Rotherham man Chris O'Grady available after his loan move from Oldham, and he could start in place of Andy Morrell to partner the dangerous Andy Bishop in attack. Bishop was on target last season in the same fixture as the Millers were soundly beaten 3-0, tonight promises to be just as cold weather wise.

Bury's only other injury absentee is defender Ryan Cresswell. Ben Futcher, once a Millers transfer target, continues to deputise.
