    It’s a packed schedule for Kent’s football clubs tonight, with Gillingham travelling to Wiltshire seeking back-to-back wins, as they take on rivals Swindon Town in League One.

    The acrimony between the clubs stretches all the way back to a promotion battle in the late 1970s – something of which top scorer Josh Wright says all the Gills players are fully aware.

    There’s full commentary of that match on from 19:30 GMT plus online commentaries from the too.

    Dover Athletic will look to tighten their grip on a play-off place as they travel to Woking, while Maidstone United could move out of the relegation places with a positive result at Dagenham & Redbridge.
