League Two Darlington v Rotherham United 27 January 2009, Darlington Arena, 7.45pm

The Millers go into tonight's game, the tihrd on the road in a week, looking to not only net a goal but stop the rot at the wrong end after a combined five goal whitewash against Scunthorpe and Grimsby.

JPT matters aside, Grimsby were clinical at the weekend and Rotherham must improve in attack if they're to pick up anything tonight.

Changes may be made again to the sde, one enforced on boss Mark Robins is the absence of Jamie Green through injury. A change of formation may also be an option. Richie Barker is also still injured while Mark Lynch could return to the team.

Darlo boss Dave Penney, who's side have lost only twice at home this season, could be without Liam Hatch again, who's rated as 50-50. Hatch was linked with a move to Rotherham earlier this season and remains on loan in the North East from Peterborough.

Penney's other absentee is midfielder Ricky Ravenhill who sits out the game through suspension.

Fans wanting to still travel without a ticket can pay on the night, prices are at the top of our messageboard.
