Crusaders head coach Scott Robertson has made two changes to the team that beat the Hurricanes last week for their clash with the Chiefs.
Captain Sam Whitelock returns at lock, replacing the injured Scott Barrett, and half-backs Mitchell Drummond and Bryn Hall rotate so that Hall takes the starting spot this week.
The sight of Fijian-born uncle and nephew, Seta Tamanivalu and Manasa Mataele, storming down the wing will no doubt be something that the local fans are looking forward to, with Mataele set to come off the bench in the second-half.
