Fiji is expecting a tough match against Samoa despite Samoa losing to USA 13-10 last weekend.

Fiji Airways Flying Fijians coach John McKee says they know what a physical side Samoa is and they probably felt a little bit unlucky in the game on Saturday.

McKee says the Samoan players will be behind each other and come prepared for the match.

Changes are expected to be made to the team to face Samoa as McKee is working on getting the right combinations before the Rugby World Cup.

Fiji plays Samoa at 7.15pm Saturday at the ANZ Stadium and you can catch the live commentary of the match on Viti FM.
