Jona Nareki, Hoskins Sotutu and Alex Hodgman have all been named to start for their respective sides in the Super Rugby Trans-Tasman final on Saturday.
The Highlanders have named an unchanged lineup from last week with Nareki overcoming an injury to start on the wing.
Sotutu and Hodgman will again be part of the Blues forwards.
The Blues have made one change from last week with Akira Ioane coming in at number 6.
Both sides enter the match unbeaten in the Trans-Tasman competition and were only separated on the standings by points differential.
The Blues will be aiming to claim its first Super Rugby title since 2003 while the Highlanders last won the title in 2015.
The 2021 Super Rugby Trans-Tasman final will kick off at 7.05pm Saturday at Eden Park.
