Match Preview:
Lewes currently sit in 9th place on 17 points from 13 games. After a bright start to the season the Rooks under new manager, the returning Craig Nelson, gained all three points in a 2-1 victory at home to Cheshunt on Tuesday evening to bring to an end a run of ten games in all competitions without a win.

Meanwhile The Millers sit in 18th place just one outside the relegation places on 11 points from their opening 12 games. Steve McKimm announced in the week that three players had been released which opens up opportunities for others. Clearly changes are on the cards and one new face is expected on Saturday subject to the paperwork going through in time.

Nickname: The Rooks
Manager: Craig Nelson - recently returned having been manager last season before departing to Tonbridge Angels in the summer.
