British and Irish Lions

De Villiers replaces Wynand Olivier at inside centre in the only change from the side beaten 20-18 by Australia in their last outing almost three weeks ago.

However, openside flanker Juan Smith is an injury doubt after suffering a leg injury on Wednesday morning and he faces a scan to determine how serious the problem is.

A decision on his participation will be made on Wednesday afternoon.

Ruan Pienaar is named on the bench, while Andre Pretorius also earns a recall among the replacements.

The All Blacks have made 11 changes from the side which retained the title following Saturday's 34-27 win against the Wallabies.

Team: Percy Montgomery; Akona Ndungane, Jaque Fourie, Jean de Villiers, Bryan Habana; Butch James, Fourie du Preez; Os du Randt, John Smit (capt), CJ van der Linde, Johann Muller, Victor Matfield, Solly Tyibilika, Juan Smith, Jacques Cronje.

Replacements: Eddie Andrews, Chiliboy Ralepelle, Albert van den Berg, Joe van Niekerk, Ruan Pienaar, Wynand Olivier, Andre Pretorius.

The Lions of Leicester and Leinster will bring domestic bragging rights with them to tomorrow's farewell dinner after they helped their respective sides to league titles on Saturday.

Assistant coach Graham Rowntree says The British & Irish Lions will have to be fully focussed to avoid a potential banana skin when they face The Barbarians a week today.

Lions skipper Sam Warburton says the lessons he and his Welsh colleagues learnt in Australia last summer will stand them in good stead for their return visit with Britain and Ireland's elite next month.
