Brentford v Gillingham

RONNIE JEPSON has warned his players they must be at the top of their game if they are to get anything from their trip to Brentford on Saturday.

Although the Bees went nine matches without winning, they will have been boosted by their penalty shoot-out victory over Northampton in the Johnstone Paint Trophy in midweek.

Jepson said: "Brentford is always a difficult place to go to. We need to be well prepared, and we will be ready for a battle."

Late collapses in recent away games have seen the Gills ship several points, and it’s a problem Jepson is all too aware of.

He said: "We set up tactically-wise to create chances, and we have done that in abundance. If we can rectify conceding goals, we can be a good team."
