Wealdstone v Rotherham

Duo make Millers clash

Wealdstone hope Alan Massey and Kieron Forbes will be passed fit when they face League Two high-flyers Rotherham in the FA Cup first round.

Massey and Forbes are having precautionary treatment ahead of the game, but Greg Ngoyi is definitely ruled out after picking up a red card in the win against Aylesbury in the last round.

Assistant manager Leo Morris is confident Wealdstone can cause an upset against Ronnie Moore's side.

The Stones lie fourth in the Isthmian League Premier Division and believe they can build on their impressive league form for the visit of the Millers.

"We really honestly think we've got half a chance," Morris told Press Association Sport. "We're at home at a ground they're not used to. We've got a very loud and loyal support - and that's just normally in league games.

"This is special for them and we fancy it. We've got a young, confident side who like to play football and we'll take it to them.

"We've had them looked at and we know what they're about. It's not going to be easy but why not? Why not?"

Nicky Law is available again for Rotherham but fellow midfielder Micky Cummins remains out.

Law missed last weekend's 0-0 draw with Aldershot after overcoming a bout of flu before being struck down by tonsillitis but is ready to regain his starting berth.

Cummins, however, is facing at least a month on the sidelines after aggravating a groin injury in training.

Defender Marc Joseph is a doubt as he continues to recover from a groin injury but manager Ronnie Moore has no fresh injury concerns for the trip to north London.

Moore will see the trip to the Isthmian League Premier Division side as the ideal chance to end their four-match winless run after their fine start to the League Two season came to a halt.
