Millers look to extend winning run

ROTHERHAM United gun for a fourth straight win in tonight's Yorkshire derby at home to York City.

But, says manager Steve Evans, the team will have to be patient if they are to collect the points that could take them back into the automatic promotion frame in League Two.

"York will sit and try to counter-attack like other teams do at the New York Stadium," he said.

Midfielder Michael O'Connor is back from suspension while leading scorer Daniel Nardiello is pushing for a return from the groin injury that ruled him out of last Tuesday's win at Bristol Rovers.

Without a win since New Year's Day, York need points to be absolutely sure of safety. They played out a goalless draw at Oxford United on Saturday and sit 17th ahead of tonight's contest. Kick-off is 7.45pm.
