Gillingham will have an almost fully fit squad in which to choose from for Saturday’s trip to Milton Keynes Dons.

Ady Pennock’s squad has been much changed in recent weeks and that’s seen them lose their last three games and drop to within touching distance of the League One relegation zone.

Defender Zesh Rehman will be available again following a one-match suspension and should go straight back into a side that’s struggled to keep clean sheets this season.

Czech goalkeeper Tomas Holy could retain his place ahead of Stuart Nelson after being handed a debut in last weekend’s 1-0 home defeat by Peterborough.

On-loan Bournemouth winger Harry Cornick is pushing for a start having made his first appearance as a substitute, and striker Joe Quigley is back from international duty with the Republic of Ireland Under-21s.

Midfielder Scott Wagstaff (Achilles) is out, whilst forward Rory Donnelly, who came off at half-time against Posh after suffering from conjunctivitis, should return.

Chris Herd (knee) and defender Bradley Garmston (hamstring) continue their recoveries, with Aaron Morris (knee) is a long-term absentee.

Dean Bowditch is back in contention for MK Dons as they prepare to host The Gills.

The forward missed the goalless draw at Port Vale through illness but he has since resumed training and is available again.

Dons boss Robbie Neilson had a couple of unnamed players miss training during the early part of the week, but they are also back with the group.

Chuks Aneke looks like being the only absentee, with the midfielder likely to miss the remainder of the season with a hamstring injury.

If every there was a game Gillingham really needed a win from, this is it. Win and they climb away from the bottom four, lose and their fate could start to be slipping away from their own hands.
