The Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific final tomorrow night will see two upcoming wingers in the competition battling it out as the Chiefs’ Emoni Narawa will be coming up against the Crusaders’ winger Leicester Fainga'anuku in what is expected to be a thriller.

Both wingers have been making headlines in this season’s competition and have both been rewarded with a call-up into the All Blacks 36-member squad for the upcoming Rugby Championship.

Fainga'anuku already has two test caps for the All Blacks under his belt with Narawa hoping to make his international debut next month.

But leaving all the international duties talks for next month, the focus will be on tomorrow night when they will be on the opposite end of the field fighting to help their respective sides clinch the title tomorrow.

Fainga'anuku has played 12 matches this season and scored 13 tries while Narawa has scored 7 tries in 12 matches this season.

The Chiefs will host the Crusaders at 7.05pm at FMG Stadium, Waikato.
