We know them well – Davids

“We have got a lot of information in Libya in our previous match, knowing exactly the finer details that you do not see or do not pick up in terms of analysis,” – Orlando Pirates assistant coach Fadlu Davids said.

“We saw how they approach the game, seeing how they handle the game, their game management style in terms of time-wasting and gaining fouls in territories where they want set-pieces. So we are fully prepared, we know what to expect now. Everything is there for us now, the platform is there for us to be able to get our three points.

“The target for us is clear; three points. In the last game at home, we got three points and that is the next target. I think if you have three points, Orlando Pirates have a good chance to go to the next stage or the final.”
