Gillingham vs Rochdale - Gillingham look to return to winning ways against Rochdale
Posted Monday, November 23, 2015 by PA
Gillingham are looking to get back to winning ways at home to Rochdale after being knocked off the top of League One on Saturday by opponents Coventry.
Defender Deji Oshilaja stepped in to play the full 90 minutes of Saturday's 4-1 defeat at the Ricoh Arena after Harry Lennon was recalled by Charlton on the Friday before the game.
Oshilaja should keep his starting place, while Emmanuel Osadebe will hope to be involved after he was taken off at half-time against the Sky Blues.
Impressive midfielder Bradley Dack can reach double figures for the season with a goal on Tuesday having taken his tally to nine with a consolation on Saturday.
Rochdale boss Keith Hill said he will make changes to his side both due to player tiredness and the specific nature of the opposition.
It remains to be seen whether that will involve returns from injury lay-offs for midfielders Matty Lund (thigh) and Jamie Allen (dead leg).
Defender Joe Rafferty has been out with a stomach problem, while forward Reuben Noble-Lazarus remains sidelined by a shoulder complaint.
Hill's men won for the first time in eight League One games with Saturday's 2-0 triumph at Doncaster.
