No new injury concerns for Gillingham boss Evans

Gillingham manager Steve Evans believes his squad is in good shape ahead of Saturday’s Sky Bet League One clash with Southend, as the Gills look to bounce back from their 3-0 defeat at Oxford.

Teenage goalkeeper Joe Walsh is set to return to the bench after missing last weekend’s loss through injury.

Midfielder Matty Willock, who has not featured since his sole appearance of the season at the end of August, remains sidelined by a hamstring injury.

Mark Marshall and Olly Lee, meanwhile, will be hoping for a place in the starting XI after playing their part in an improved second-half performance at Oxford.

Southend caretaker manager Gary Waddock will have forward Simon Cox available for the trip to Gillingham.

Cox picked up an ankle injury against Accrington Stanley last weekend but has made a quick recovery.

Charlie Kelman also suffered an ankle problem in the same game, but he is expected to be out for a few weeks following a scan.

Defender John White is another absentee as he continues to recover from a broken arm.
