Owen Farrell's injury has overshadowed the build up to the British and Irish Lions' biggest match of the tour so far against Maori All Blacks tonight.
Fly‑half Farrell may miss the first Test against the All Blacks on June 24 after a quadriceps injury in training, with Johnny Sexton likely to fill in.
Sexton, instrumental in the series win in Australia in 2013, has a "little bit of his mojo back", according to Gatland, and he starts at fly-half as he looks to assert himself on this tour.
The Irishman starts tonight's game in Rotorua, which may be a tour‑defining game for Warren Gatland's side.
Victory would give the Lions confidence and momentum before the Test series.
The Maori All Blacks will host the British & Irish lions at 7.35pm tonight.
