The Pacific Islanders are looking for their first ever victory on European soil when they take on England tomorrow at Twickenham.
Team captain Mosese Rauluni said the preparation so far has been ideal and players from Fiji, Samoa and Tonga have started to understand each other.
Rauluni said coach Quddus Filea highlighted a few areas where they need more concentration while playing tomorrow and things should go well as they mainly focused on the lineouts and set-pieces.
He said the year 2008 may be lucky for the Pacific Islanders this time around, as they haven't won a match since 2004.
Rauluni said he also likes the format of the Pacific Islanders which give more tests for players from Fiji, Samoa and Tonga.
The Pacific Islanders/England match will kickoff tomorrow at 2:30am.
In other international tests tomorrow, the Wallabies play Italy at 3am, Wales take on South Africa at 2:30am, New Zealand meets Scotland at 5:15am, Ireland also plays Canada at 5:15am and France take on Argentina at 8am.
