The Black Caps must take six wickets and West Indies still need 319 runs for victory in first test of their three-match series at Hagley Oval in Christchurch.
Entering the final day, the tourists are 212/4, chasing 531 runs to snatch an unlikely win.
West Indies have Shai Hope unbeaten on 116 against a shorthanded NZ bowling attack, with Nathan Smith sidelined by injury.
This is New Zealand's first outing in the current world test championship cycle and they desperately need a win at home to launch their bid to regain the crown.
First ball is at 11am.
