All Whites striker Chris Killen won't be playing in the All Whites FIFA World Cup warmup match against Slovenia in Maribor on Friday (Saturday NZT) because of a strained calf muscle.
The Middlesbrough forward was due to slot straight back into the New Zealand starting XI for the match after getting married in Britain.
It will be the same side that upset Serbia 1-0 in Austria last weekend and West Bromwich Albion teenager Chris Wood retains his starting spot.
Slovenia has a world ranking of 25 and Serbia is 15. New Zealand is ranked 78th in the world.
