Musovski is making his eighth start of the season after scoring two goals on Saturday.
Galindo Cruz is making his eighth start of the season, and just his ninth appearance of the season. Galindo Cruz's 664 minutes played this season is the lowest total of today's starters.
Outside back Brent Richards will be the captain tonight for the fourth time in the last five matches.
