Tahin to miss out again
East Stirling's new striker Lerou Tahin has still not been cleared to play following the Frenchman's move to Scotland and he will miss out against Annan.
Michael Bolochoweckyj is available after a ban but Nathan Shepherd (knee), Paul McMullan (heel) and Chris Townsley (groin) all miss out.
Shire head coach Craig Tully said: "Everyone at the club got a boost by beating Clyde last week and keeping a clean sheet.
"That has given us two wins out of two at home and we will go out looking to make it three against an Annan side who have also taken a boost after winning against Berwick last Saturday."
Annan manager Jim Chapman has named the same squad for the second game running for the first time this season.
However, he is again missing Steven Swinglehurst and Scott Davidson with knee injuries and Kieran Brannan with a foot problem.
After securing their first win last weekend the Galabank men are out to make it two in a row, with Chapman saying: "We have played better and lost but getting three points with a clean sheet made last Saturday a very good day.
"It will be very tough to make it two as the Shire will want the win as well but we can do it."
