Marseille - Fiji's New Zealander coach John McKee on Thursday picked a side with nine French-based players to tackle France in Marseille on Saturday.
Along with three substitutes plying their trade in France, 12 of Fiji's 23-man match-day squad play for teams in the top three divisions there.
The main threat for Les Bleus will come from the top two try-scorers in the Top 14, Grenoble's Alipate Ratini, who lines up on the left wing, and Metuisela Talebula of Bordeaux-Begles, normally a wing but shunted to full-back to make way for second division Perpignan's Watisoni Votu to take the No.14 shirt.
Another Top 14 player in La Rochelle's Lepani Botia takes his place at inside centre.
Two more Pro D2 players line up in the forwards with Narbonne hooker Sunia Koto and Agen lock Api Ratuniyarawa joining a Top 14 back row of Domeniko Waqaniburotu (Brive), Akapusi Qera (Montpellier) and Masi Matadigo (Lyon).
On the bench, Montpellier wing Timoci Nagusa is joined by Pro D2 Biarritz's lock Nemia Soqeta and prop Isei Colatei, who plays for third division (Federale 1) Nevers.
Alongside the plethora of French-based players there will be a lot of interest in seeing Harlequins' Asaeli Tikoirotuma at outside centre, despite playing wing in the English Premiership.
Surprisingly, Leicester centre Vereniki Gonewa and Stade Francais counterpart Waisea Vuidravuwalu have not even made the squad, while Crusaders' centre Nemani Nadolo is only given a spot on the bench.
Two players in the starting line-up play in Romania, fly-half Jonetani Ralulu and prop Manasa Saulo, while replacement hooker Viliame Veikoso is the only home-based player in the 23.
