Annan looking to get off the mark

Ross McCord misses out through suspension for Montrose as they return to action against Annan at Links Park.

Danny Kavanagh is also missing due to an ankle injury with manager George Shields saying: "It was disappointing that our game was postponed as we had played really well to defeat East Stirling 4-1 in our first game.

"We have had a couple of bounce games and remained sharp and will look to come out of storage with a win. This league is going to be tight so winning at home will be essential to having a good season."

Annan look for their first points of the season and their highly rated striker Kenny Mackay could be included for the first time to help out in this campaign after his groin injury improved.

Peter Watson is suspended while there are fitness concerns over Scott Davidson (knee) and Steven Swinglehurst, and manager Jim Chapman said: "Montrose came out of the traps flying however they have been kept waiting to build on that.

"It will be a difficult game to get points on board but we will go there and be positive. If we can cut the silly mistakes out of our game then we have good chance."
