Number eight Zane Kapeli and midfielder Latu Vaeno will make their test debuts in Tonga's final November tour match against Georgia this weekend.
The Bay of Plenty loose forward and Taranaki utility back came off the bench against the French Barbarians two weeks ago but will start for the 'Ikale Tahi in Tbilisi, in place of Sione Vailanu, who drops to the reserves and captain Siale Piutau, who has returned to his club side Bristol.
In the only other change to the starting fifteen thumped 74-24 by Wales, Sefo Sakalia replaces Paula Ngauamo at hooker.
Hooker Sione Anga'aelangi is set to make his first test appearance since 2016 off the bench.
Wellington prop Otutolu Fahamokioa and Hawkes Bay lock Sam Ulufonua are also set to earn their first test caps for the 'Ikale Tahi after being named in the matchday 23.
Sonatane Takulua, Kurt Morath and Vungakoto Lilo all played in Tonga's 23-19 victory in Tbilisi back in 2014 but the 'Ikale Tahi have lost their last three tests against the Lelos, including a 16-15 defeat in Suva in June.
