    When you are out of form and have lost a few games, going into a game you're expected to win heightens the sense of pressure - that's some baggage you don't want.

    It will be a really physical, ferocious game.

    Papua New Guinea have utilised the NRL and Super League experience at their disposal, with several players selected who have featured in Australia’s and England’s premier competitions.

    GB Lions boss Bennett has selected the same starting 13 from the loss to New Zealand last weekend, although Canberra-bound half-back George Williams is set to make his Lions debut after being named on the bench in Port Moresby.

    GB Lions XI: Lomax, McGillvary, Hughes, Connor, Austin, Widdop, Hastings, Hill, Hodgson, Burgess, Bateman, Whitehead, Graham

    Beaten, battered and bruised.

    It has been a forgettable tour for the returning Great Britain Lions, losing all three of their matches so far.

    They have one final chance to put things right against Papua New Guinea in Port Moresby.

    Can Wayne Bennett's side salvage some pride?
