Michael Skubala made four changes to the side that drew 2-2 at Charlton Athletic last time out.
Jovon Makama came out of the team after the boss confirmed that the attacker would be out for the remainder of the season with a hamstring injury, he was replaced by Joe Gardner.
Reeco Hackett, Tom Bayliss and Lewis Montsma also came into the XI, with Ben House, Ethan Hamilton and Tom Hamer making way.
Ethan Erhahon returns to the bench after a long injury.
Skubala said: “We’re going to have to be at our best because Shrewsbury will be fighting for their lives, we need to make sure we’re on the front foot from the start.
“We want to keep pushing and giving the fans something to cheer about, but another thing we’re keen to do is to give different players the chance to showcase what they can do.
“Lewis (Montsma) has been waiting in the wings and today he has an opportunity to perform for us. There’s no better time to assess this than today, where we’ll have a team coming to fight and scrap for points.
"Ethan's (Erhahon) been brilliant with his rehab, and we now want to get him going before the end of the season."
Imps: Wickens, Darikwa, Montsma, Jackson, Hackett, Bayliss, Ring, McGrandles, Roughan, Collins, Gardner.
