Three is the magic number for Shire

East Stirling are looking for a third win in a row when East Fife visit.

Head coach Craig Tully is able to list the same squad that defeated Montrose 4-0 last weekend, with the injured Paul McMullan (heel) and Nathan Shepherd missing out.

Tully said: "The boys set a great standard at Clyde a fortnight ago defensively when we won 1-0 and they built on that with a great performance last weekend.

"That was our best performance of the season and I was delighted as we always looked like a threatening side.

"This game will tell us what improvement we have made as East Fife defeated us too easily earlier in the season."

East Fife will be without the injured pair of Alan Cook (ankle) and Cyrus Moosavi (knee) as they look to move back into the top four by defeating their hosts.

Player-manager Gary Naysmith said: "It would be great to get back up there and put a bit of pressure on the teams below us, however East Stirling have the incentive of moving up in the table as well.

"They have won their last two games without conceding a goal and they look to be a much improved side than the one we beat 3-1 earlier in the season so it will not be easy."
