The Queensland Maroons are determined to keep the Ampol State of Origin series alive as they head to Perth for Game Two\.
After winning Game One in Brisbane, the Westpac NSW Blues are eyeing back-to-back series victories following their 2-1 success last year\.
However, historical trends are against the Maroons, as they have lost both previous games at Optus Stadium\.
Despite this, coach Billy Slater believes that his revamped squad can change their fortunes in Western Australia\.
With new halfback Tom Dearden and newly appointed skipper Cameron Munster leading the team, the Maroons will aim to disrupt a Blues side that needs to adjust its lineup due to Mitch Moses's calf injury sustained during training.
