Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena says they are in for a “tricky” encounter against Wydad Casablanca when the two sides meet in the semi-finals of the Caf Champions League on Saturday.

The Brazilians will come into this last four fixture high in confidence after they secured a 2-0 victory over Marumo Gallants in their previous match.

Sundowns will now travel to Casablanca first the first leg against Wydad when the two sides square off at the Stade Mohamed V.

Mokwena has since shared his thoughts on how the Tshwane giants will be approaching the continental fixture in Morocco.

“It’s going to be tricky we know that, we’re going to do our analysis now,” Mokwena told his club’s official website.

“The most important thing now is good rest and lots of water. We are expecting a tough game and a hostile crowd and a lot of difficulty They are a good team and they have a new coach as you have seen. But they should also expect a good team.

“[They should expect] a team that will come there and be brave to play, We just have to enjoy the opportunity and the occasion.”
