All Whites coach Ricki Herbert has gone for a mixture of the old and new for his New Zealand A side which will take on the Wellington Phoenix in Rotorua on Sunday.
All Whites Glen Moss, Andrew Durante, Jeremy Brockie and Leo Bertos have been named to face their current club and will be joined by established internationals Ivan Vicelich and Tony Lochhead.
Aaron Clapham and Jake Butler are in the mix, Jason Hicks has a chance to make his New Zealand A debut and Cole Peverley will have another chance at international level after his last appearance in 2008 and just missing out on the 2010 World Cup squad.
On top of that, Young All Whites Adam Mitchell, Matthew Ridenton and Stuart Holthusen have been handed an opportunity for some valuable experience before they head off for the upcoming Under-17 World Cup in the United Arabs Emirates.
Herbert is still searching for the right formula ahead of November's high-stakes playoff against the fourth-best nation from North and Central America for a place at next year's World Cup. They are hoping to have two more internationals in October but this match against the Phoenix will also be important.
