League Two Grimsby Town v Rotherham United 24 January 2009 at 3pm

The Millers return to league action tomorrow looking to extened their cushion at the foot of League Two against one of their relegation rivals.

The Mariners recorded only their third victory of the campaign last week at leaders Wycombe, and will be a tough nut to crack despite their poor position.

Earlier in the season the Millers trailed at half time in the corresponding fixture by a single goal, but turned their fortunes around with a 4 goal second half blitz.

The game marked the return of Richie Barker for a second stint at the club, and he could return from injury tomorrow but is rated doubtful. Other changes may be likely, particularly in midfield with Danny Harrison pushing for a start as the side aim to put Tuesday's JPT disappointment at Scunthorpe behind them.

Tomorrow arrives too early for Pablo Mills (right) who is still short of games in his comeback from injury.

The Mariners have striker Adam Proudlock fit to start whilst Danny North, who ironically featured for Grimsby's reserves this week as they battered Rotherham 6-2 at Don Valley, may figure.

Rob Atkinson is also available, whilst loanees Stuart Elliott and Dean Sinclair will make their home debuts for Mike Newell's men.

Here's the head to head.
