Striker Dennis Oli admits he may have to keep his head down if Gillingham can spring a surprise in South East London.

The forward, pictured, has netted twice in his last three outings, and lives close to the New Den but will have only one thing on his mind if picked to face the Lions.

He said: "I’m looking forward to it. We seem to do well against the bigger teams.

"I don’t live too far away and see a fair few Millwall fans around and may have to keep my head down for a bit."

It’s the start of a daunting run of fixtures for the Gills.

"Those are the games you look at on the fixture list at the start of the season and you just can’t wait to play them," he said.

"Football is a funny game and we could pick up our first away win at Millwall. We are confident and the win over Southend stands us in good stead."

Oli was carrying a hip injury during Monday’s game and, if fit, it’s unlikely boss Mark Stimson will drop his form player.

But with Simeon Jackson back fit and front men Rene Howe and Andy Barcham also doing well, there is plenty of competition up front.

"Whichever player he chooses there isn’t going to be any bitterness because there is a good togetherness in the camp," Oli added.
