Gillingham prepare to entertain Rotherham United at Priestfield Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Gills are clearly on top, having won 12 and lost only 3 of the 22 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Priestfield Stadium was less than a year ago, in January 2006, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League One match.
