Gillingham vs Bradford preview

Gillingham midfielder Regan Charles-Cook could be back in contention for the home game against Bradford.

Charles-Cook had been hoping to return for the midweek defeat at Plymouth after missing the previous four games due to an ankle injury.

Forward Brandon Hanlan (hamstring) and midfielder Dean Parrett (ankle) will be assessed after being sidelined for four and two matches respectively. Midfielders Bradley Garmston and Brad Stevenson, plus defender Alex Lacey are among those pushing for recalls.
