DEFENDER Craig Wilkins faces a late fitness test ahead of Gravesend & Northfleet's trip to Grays in the Ryman League Premier Division tonight. Wilkins has missed the last few games with a hamstring injury, but could be in line to return as Fleet seek to maintain their position as the division's pacesetters.
Goalkeeper Jamie Turner is still missing, but might be fit for the FA Cup tie against tenants Dartford on Saturday. Adrian Blake will continue to deputise.
Gravesend boss Andy Ford is expecting a tough battle against the team lying fourth in the division. He said: "I watched them against Purfleet last week and I could see why they are up there.
