Sundowns are currently unbeaten in their CAF Champions League group stages, but will be more eager to improve on their record against the Moroccans when they welcome them to South Africa this weekend.

The Brazilians have only beaten Wydad twice in their last nine meetings, with their past two fixtures having ended in 0-0 draws.
