The Chiefs coach Dave Rennie has stuck with the same side that beat the Crusaders last week for Saturday night's Super Rugby final against the Sharks at Waikato Stadium.
Co-captain and lock Craig Clarke has overcome a knee injury picked up in the semi-final win and has been cleared to play in the trophy match.
The Hamilton final sold out within hours of tickets going on sale with more than 25,000 fans to fill Waikato Stadium for the Chiefs first ever home final.
