The two teams first met earlier this year with the Devils winning by 28 points, 9.10 (64) to 5.6 (36).
Pioneers will be without a few key players as they are in action at the AFLW Girls Under-18 National Championships.
"With our Victoria Country representatives unavailable we'll field a very young side on Sunday,'' Pioneers coach Danny O'Bree said.
"It's a great opportunity for the young players to experience NAB League football against a very good side in Tasmania.
"It's a great stepping stone for the young players for next season."
The match begins at 12.30pm on Sunday at North Hobart.
