Barnsley at full strength for Gillingham clash

Barnsley head coach Daniel Stendel has a clean bill of health as he attempts to extend the club’s winning run to five Sky Bet League One games against Scunthorpe.

Stendel has no fresh injury concerns but was less than impressed by the way his side conceded twice at Oxford on Tuesday night before hitting back to claim a 2-2 draw.

Goals from Mamadou Thiam and Kieffer Moore did the trick, although the latter had been left out of the starting line-up as the head coach experimented with a 4-3-3 formation which he then abandoned at half-time.

Winger Lloyd Isgrove, who has been a peripheral figure in recent weeks, has left the club to join promotion rivals Portsmouth on loan for the remainder of the season.

Scunthorpe defender Cameron Borthwick-Jackson will be out of action for between six and eight weeks with a knee injury.

The Manchester United loanee suffered cartilage damage during last Saturday’s 1-0 win at Fleetwood and is facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Striker Lee Novak has a broken bone in his hand but he trained on Thursday and manager Stuart McCall is confident he will be available.

However, long-term absentees Josh Morris (fractured fibula), Jordan Clarke (knee) and Ryan Colclough (cruciate ligament) remain out of action.
