Stockport could hand a debut to midfielder Anthony Pulis, who has joined on loan from Southampton.
Fellow midfielder Jamie Proctor has returned to Preston after completing his two-month loan spell at the club.
Gillingham manager Andy Hessenthaler told BBC Radio Kent: "The fans deserve a reaction to the Accrington result. They've gone a long way to see us score four goals away again and lose. They deserve better.
"Going back on the bus the players were hurting as much as I'm sure the fans were. We've got to make sure that kind of performance doesn't happen again."
"Stockport have seen that we conceded seven goals in the last game and will try and exploit us in that respect. It's up to us to make things difficult for them."
