County are without a win in their last four since thrashing Morecambe 5-0 on 29th December, having suffered 4-2 and 1-0 defeats to Tranmere Rovers and Mansfield Town on either side of 5-5 and 1-1 draws with Grimsby Town and Barrow AFC.
Gillingham also have just one win in their last five outings, having beaten Accrington Stanley 2-1 after a 4-0 FA Cup defeat to Sheffield United. Since then, the Gills have drawn 1-1 with both Forest Green and Walsall while losing 2-1 away at MK Dons.
