Rotherham United welcome Torquay to Don Valley tomorrow evening in this re-arranged game called off earlier in the season due to bad weather.

Torquay make the long journey on the back of a two-all draw with Bristol Rovers at the weekend and having won their previous two games before that. If they get all three points tomorrow then they would go into the automatic promotion places.

The Millers are five places and thirteen points behind the Gulls going into tomorrow’s game and will want three points to help push them towards the play-off spots.

Rotherham United Team News:

The Millers are still going to be without Richard Naylor who has a knee injury and Scott Griffiths is also a major doubt. Gareth Evans could go into the starting eleven after playing all the second half on Saturday which is his first minutes for some weeks after being out with injuries. Thinking about the Tuesday-Saturday-Tuesday-Saturday games Andy Scott has said he might make changes.

Player to watch: Johnny Mullins

Always gives one hundred per cent and could well be needed tomorrow night

Torquay United Team News:

Martin Ling brings a full strength squad to Don Valley although left-back Kevin Nicholson took a heavy knock at the weekend and will probably have a late fitness test. Danny Stevens, who played sixty minutes on Saturday after suffering an ankle problem is set to start and Chris McPhee and Ryan Jarvis will be vieing to play alongside the midfielder.

Player to watch: Lee Mansell

Top scorer with the Gulls who has returned to his favoured midfield position since Martin Ling’s arrival
