Maradona's latest squad for the game in the country's most popular Atlantic seaside resort of Mar del Plata next Wednesday includes six players never called up before, according to the list posted on the Argentine Football Association website.
He was criticised in the media for initially including four players from South American champions Estudiantes before removing them when it was pointed out to him they have a Libertadores Cup match the following day.
Since the advent in the 1990s of a mass exodus to European clubs of South America's top players, Argentina coaches have occasionally picked B squads to try out locally-based players in friendlies on non-FIFA international dates.
However, Maradona, who took charge in November 2008 and was heavily criticised for indecision over players and tactics during Argentina's poor qualifying campaign, has taken the habit to extremes.
