Enjoy new match (5)
I believe the answer is:
liken
'match' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'enjoy new' is the wordplay.
'enjoy' becomes 'like' (like can mean to appreciate or enjoy something).
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'like'+'n'='LIKEN'
(Other definitions for liken that I've seen before include "Equate" , "Represent as similar" , "Compare" , "Point out the resemblance (to)" .)
