Argentina have rung the changes for their final Rugby World Cup Pool C clash against Namibia at Leicester on Sunday.
The Pumas have retained only lock Guido Petti, flanker Pablo Matera, scrum-half Martin Landajo - who will captain the side - and winger Matias Moroni from the starting line-up that beat Tonga 45-16 last Sunday.
Qualification for the quarter-finals is guaranteed if New Zealand beat the Tongans on Friday and Argentina will field their youngest and most inexperienced team at a World Cup in 16 years, ensuring every player in the squad has played at least once during the pool stage.
Namibia, who face the Pumas just four days after their hard-fought 17-16 defeat to Georgia, have also made 11 changes in their quest for a first World Cup win.
They must do without their influential captain Jacques Burger, who has retired from international rugby after being ruled out of the match with concussion.
The captaincy has been handed to fellow back-row Rohan Kirtstoff, who led his country in between World Cups in Burger's absence.
Renaldo Bothma was originally named on the bench for the match but has since been suspended for two weeks for a dangerous tackle against Georgia.
Hooker Torsten van Jaarsveld, lock Tjiuee Uanivi, fly-half Theuns Kotze, and full-back Chrysander Botha are the only players to be handed successive starts by head coach Phil Davies.
