Wests Tigers Coach Michael Maguire has finalised his side to take on the Canberra Raiders for their Round 1 clash at GIO Stadium.

Kickoff for the match is at 4:05pm AEDT as Wests Tigers look to extend their Round 1 winning streak, having not lost a season opener since 2014.

Maguire has confirmed an unchanged side from the one named during the week, with Wests Tigers set to field five club debutants on Sunday — Daine Laurie, James Roberts, James Tamou, Joe Ofahengaue and Stefano Utoikamanu.

Roberts' first game for Wests Tigers will also be his 150th NRL game following previous stints at the South Sydney Rabbitohs, Penrith Panthers, Gold Coast Titans and Brisbane Broncos.
