The Team of Choice is still in a celebratory mood as they come from a 3-1win over the Brazilians in the Nedbank Cup semi-finals on Sunday.
However, a different strategy is needed from the hosts for them to bag their second win over the Brazilians for the second time in all competitions.
Coach Fadlu Davids and his men have made history for the club after bagging 11 wins and reaching 42 points for the first time in their history in the league so far.
The achievement means they have booked a spot in the top eight and they also reached the semi-finals of a cup competition for the first time in 24 years.
However, Davids is aware that he must work hard on ensuring his side remains focused and disciplined for this clash, and forget about the weekend and the upcoming Nedbank Cup final against Free State Stars next month.
