Danny Kedwell may be going it alone up front for Gillingham again this weekend but he's warned Leyton Orient defenders to expect little peace.

Loan pair Jo Kuffour and Frank Nouble will be absent for the FA Cup match at Brisbane Road, as their parent clubs don't want them cup-tied, which means Kedwell (pictured) will be spearheading Gillingham's attempt to make it through to the third round.

He said: "This time I will be doing it on my own but I am capable of that, like I showed against Bournemouth. I won't give them an easy day.

"It can be difficult when you play up front on your own. I just have to work much harder. When there are two, sometimes they help you with closing down.

"We've played a League 1 team already, in Bournemouth, and we played them off the park. It was like we were League 1 and they were League 2. It goes to show how good we would be in that league.

"Leyton Orient need to look out because we will be coming at them all guns blazing. We are not scared and have to have the same mindset as we did against Bournemouth which is just to play our own game."
