The Millers host Chesterfield tomorrow afternoon looking to do the double over their local rivals for only the second time in their history.
Rotherham's 2-0 victory over the Spireites at Saltergte in December gives the Millers the chance to secure a double victory over Chesterfield for the first time since the 1928/29 season, when the Millers won at home 2-0 and then away 2-1.
Rotherham will be without full back Joe Widdowson who has been recalled by parent club West Ham but the attack could be boosted by the return of striker Tom Cahill, who has been recalled to Millmoor after a spell out on loan at Blue Square Premier side Altrincham.
Chesterfield come to Millmoor looking to get back to winning ways after their three match winning run was ended by MK Dons on Monday night. The Spireites have generally been in good form on their travels and have the seventh best away record in League Two. In attack they boast one of the divisions most lethal striker's in Jack Lester. The former Grimsby, Sheffield United and Nottingham Forest player has netted 24 goals in all competitions so far this season and he is the league's second highest goal scorer.
The last visit Chesterfield made to Millmoor was in January 2007 and they returned to Saltergate with maximum points after a 1-0 win. The Millers have not registered a league victory over Chesterfield at home since September 1979 when they won 2-0 but Rotherham have had home success in the League Cup in 2004. On that occasion the Millers won 2-1 thanks to goals from Michael Proctor and Richie Barker. The two sides have met 57 times in league football with Rotherham winning 11, Chesterfield winning 36 and 10 games have ended in a draw.
Chesterfield currently have former Miller Gregor Robertson on their playing staff but he is not expected to feature against his former club due to a thigh muscle injury. Robertson played 56 games in all competitions whilst at Millmoor before his release in July 2007. Another former Miller currently on loan at Saltergate is Jamie Annerson. The 'keeper had a loan spell at Millmoor earlier in the season but he was used only as cover for Andy Warrington.
