Sunderland vs Gillingham - Sunderland set to assess number of players

Sunderland manager Jack Ross has no major injury problems ahead of Tuesday’s Sky Bet League One meeting with Gillingham.

The Black Cats will assess a couple of knocks to unnamed players following Friday’s 2-2 draw with Accrington.

Midfielder Lee Cattermole and forward Chris Maguire are among those pushing for recalls, while Bryan Oviedo could return from a calf problem.

Duncan Watmore is unlikely to be involved following long-term injury, and Glenn Loovens and Donald Love are still out.

Gillingham hope to have Josh Rees in contention at the Stadium of Light.

Midfielder Rees, who missed the weekend win over Scunthorpe, is expected to recover from a hamstring strain.

On-loan Sheffield United midfielder Ricky Holmes (back) and defender Alex Lacey (ankle) will once again miss out.

Gills captain Gabriel Zakuani has been ruled out for the rest of the season with ankle ligament damage.
