The Black Sticks Men will be hoping that a change of scenery brings a change in their fortunes. Despite some promising play in their recent matches the Black Sticks Men are still searching for their first win of the FIH Pro League.
The Black Sticks have made 3 changes to the previous weekend which sees experienced midfielder Hayden Phillips coming back into the match day squad to replace Marcus Child.
For the Vantage Black Sticks look out for Dylan Thomas who scored his first international goal against Spain on Friday evening and will be looking to build on this and use his speed and powerful shot to put the Kiwis on the front foot.
