Wes Thomas and Joe Skarz sidelined for Oxford
Oxford will be without Wes Thomas and Joe Skarz for Gillingham's visit after the pair were stretchered off in the second half of Saturday's victory over Coventry.
The club have confirmed striker Thomas will miss the rest of the season after rupturing his Achilles tendon.
Skarz was taken to hospital with concussion after the match and will miss Tuesday's clash.
It remains to be seen whether boss Michael Appleton will recall Arsenal loanee Dan Crowley after the midfielder was left out of Oxford's squad on Saturday.
Gillingham boss Justin Edinburgh has no new injury concerns and could name an unchanged side.
The Gills bounced back from their FA Cup defeat to Brackley with a 2-1 win away at Walsall on Saturday and Edinburgh could stick with the same XI.
Midfielders Emmanuel Osadebe and Mark Byrne stepped off the bench in the second half at the weekend and they are in the frame should the manager opt to make changes.
Long-term absentee Lee Martin is continuing his recovery from an ankle injury.
