Millwall physio Bobby Bacic is hoping that his work in the treatment room will reap the necessary rewards when The Lions face Gillingham next month in a game that could decide the final relegation spot at the end of the season.

Speaking to the club's official site, Bacic revealed that Kenny Jackett could have something nearing a full strength squaf for the visit of The Pikies, with several key players well on the road to recovery.

"Andy Frampton was injured in training last week. His knee injury came during a block tackle and we hope to have him back for the Gillingham match.

"But he is a full blooded player who like the rest of the squad trains at the same intensity he plays.

"The other injured players are progressing well," he continued. "Gary Alexander is working hard in the pool and Alan Dunne has started jogging. We hope to have a few faces available for selection for the Gillingham clash."

With regards to Lewis Grabban's continued absence from the squad, Babic is confident that the striker should return before the season's out.

"Lewis felt a spasm during a sprint and was withdrawn (against Luton). A scan has revealed a very minor tear in his upper hamstring but we fully expect him to play again this season."
