Cape Town - Highlanders lock Tom Franklin will run out for his 50th Super Rugby game when they face the Western Force in Perth on Saturday.
Kick-off is at 11:45 SA time.
The 26-year-old, who made his debut for the Dunedin-based outfit in 2014, packs down in the second row alongside Alex Ainley as the Highlanders go in search of their eighth successive victory.
Highlanders head coach Tony Brown has made minimal changes to his starting XV after last weekend's 17-10 win over the Bulls in Pretoria.
In the backline, there are two changes with Tevita Li coming into the run-on side for the suspended Waisake Naholo on the wing and Kayne Hammington starts at scrumhalf in place of Aaron Smith, who is among the replacements.
Li will start on the left wing with Patrick Osborne, who wore the No 11 jersey against the Bulls, shifting over to the right wing.
Meanwhile, in the forwards, Liam Coltman returns to start at hooker with Ash Dixon dropping down to the bench.
Brown has also shuffled his back row with Elliot Dixon, who leads the side from number eight, swapping places with Gareth Evans who starts on the blindside flank.
Also included among the replacements is All Black flyhalf Lima Sopoaga who is set to return to action after recovering from a hamstring injury sustained in the Round 3 triumph against the Blues in Auckland.
