Huddersfield Town v Gillingham

GILLINGHAM manager Mark Stimson says his players must build on their strong defensive performances to get something out of the League One visit to Huddersfield on Saturday.

The Gills have kept clean sheets in their last two league matches but are still without central defenders Ian Cox (thigh) and Efe Sodje (eye).

Stimson said: "We will be tested on Saturday. Huddersfield are a strong side who put the ball in your area quite a lot. We have got to stand up and be ready for that.

"The boys should have loads of confidence because of recent results so we’ve got to make it three (clean sheets) in the league."

Huddersfield go into the game in high spirits on the back of their 2-1 win over Birmingham in the FA Cup third round.

Stimson added: "They had a fantastic cup win last weekend but we’ve had a couple of good results in the league against a couple of decent sides, so we’ll take the challenge on."
