Aveley will be looking to build on successive wins against Lewes (in the league last Saturday) and Colchester (on Tuesday in the Essex Senior Cup) when they travel to Potters Bar today in the isthmian premier.
The hosts sit second from bottom with just two wins and two draws from 11 matches.
Millers have played just nine in the league and today's game against struggling opposition is a chance to make up ground and a win would lift them into the top half of the table.

Millers have confirmed that Jaden Brissett and Elliott Sartoirus have recently left the club.
Brissett made 14 appearances for Aveley, scoring once and assisting twice and has joined Hashtag United while Sartourius made 11 appearances for Aveley and has gone to Walthamstow on loan.
