Rey Lee-Lo has been named in Samoa's starting line-up for Saturday's Test against Fiji at Suva.
The centre was a key member in Cardiff Blues' Challenge Cup success, and is set to win his 18th cap on the international stage.
Lee-Lo, who penned a new deal at the Arms Park earlier in the season, will line-up in an experienced back-line, which includes Bristol Bears duo Alapati Leiua and Tusi Pisi and Newcastle Falcons star, Sinoti Sinoti.
Lee-Lo will come up against a familiar face in the Fijian midfield, having faced-off against Jale Vatubua in the Challenge Cup semi final win over Pau in April.
The Pacific Nations Cup clash against Fiji will kick off a crucial run of games for the Manu Samoa, who take on Tonga next week, before focus turns to the Rugby World Cup qualifying play-off.
