Match Preview
Jevons continues to miss out Morecambe manager Jim Bentley is once again without the services of Phil Jevons for the visit of Rotherham. The striker is serving the final game of a three-match suspension following his sending off in the draw against Southend. Midfielder Kevin Ellison missed Saturday's 4-0 win over Port Vale after suffering a knee injury but, after scans have shown the problem is not as bad as first feared, the 32-year-old will be looking at occupying the sidelines for weeks rather than months. Long-term absentee Paul Scott has began running after a knee injury but is not likely to be in contention for a first-team return until the New Year. Seven-goal striker Danny Carlton made a quick return from knee ligament damage after playing against Vale, three weeks earlier than schedule, and is set to continue. Rotherham will have Alex Revell back in contention. The striker missed Saturday's 1-1 draw with Shrewsbury after his wife went into labour, but with mother and child doing well, he is set to return at the Globe Arena. On-loan defender Guy Branston is serving the second of a three-match ban so Johnny Mullins and Michael Raynes are set to continue in the centre of defence. Dale Tonge had to leave the pitch for 10 minutes at the weekend to receive stitches to a head wound and having come through the remainder of the Shrews clash he should be ok. Goalkeeper Jamie Annerson (knee), defender Ryan Cresswell (ankle) and Mark Bradley (shoulder) remain in the treatment room as Andy Scott's side aim to record a first win in nine matches.

Match Report
Shrimps and Millers share six-goal thriller Rotherham came from 3-0 down to clinch a 3-3 draw and earn a superb point at Morecambe. The Millers looked dead and buried as they trailed 3-0 after just 37 minutes thanks to a third-minute opener from Gary McDonald and two Laurence Wilson penalties either side of the half hour. Helped by referee Tony Bates' decision not to send off goalkeeper Andy Warrington and defender John Harley for last-man fouls, Andy Scott's side produced a stunning fightback. They won a penalty of their own when Alex Revell was brought down by Garry Hunter, Lewis Grabban slotting home the spot-kick in the 39th minute. And the second half belonged to the Millers who dominated from start to finish. Gareth Evans pulled a goal back after 58 minutes with a sweet left-footed strike after latching onto Hunter's poor pass. And the excellent Revell levelled shortly after with a fine header from Danny Harrison's cross. Morecambe `keeper Barry Roche was then forced to make excellent saves from Chris Holroyd and Danny Schofield as the home side were left to hang on for a point.
