Ebbsfleet test awaits

Smith

Gareth Ainsworth's Gills side have just two pre-season fixtures to play before the 2025/26 Sky Bet League 2 season kicks off, and the first of those games is on Tuesday evening at Ebbsfleet.

Following the midweek game at the Kuflink Stadium, Gills play Dartford at Princes Park on Saturday (3pm) before preparing to take on Accrington Stanley at the Wham Stadium on Saturday August 2.

Ebbsfleet, now under the management of former Gills midfielder Josh Wright, have made a number of signings over the summer as they look for an immediate return to the National League having suffered relegation earlier in the year.

Jake Hessenthaler, Ronny Nelson and Max Ehmer have all put pen to paper on contracts at Fleet, and all three could make an appearance on Tuesday.

Kick-Off at the the Kuflink Stadium is at 7pm. Tickets can be purchased on the night from 5pm (cash or card), but they can also be bought in advance via the below link or by calling 01474533796.
