Leeds v Gillingham

Mark Stimson is facing up to the biggest game of his managerial career as Gillingham make one last bid to keep their League 1 status intact.

The Gills face Leeds at Elland Road on Saturday knowing that only a win will be enough to give them any chance of survival. Stimson's side will be hoping Bournemouth get nothing more than a draw and Cheltenham lose.

He said: "It's a must-win game and one the players should be looking forward to. We know what we need to do. It's going to be difficult but we've got a belief we can do it.

"I've had big games in the past where we have won a league, a cup and done the double but what’s at stake here is to stay in the division. That’s something we’re desperate to do, so I’d have to say this is the biggest one."
