With the race to the quarter-finals of the CAF Champions League competition heating up, Soccer Laduma takes a look at the most valuable XI in the competition.

Sundowns booked their spot in the next round of the competition this weekend, after convincingly defeating Lobi Stars 3-0 on the weekend. The Brazilians however, can still increase their advantage as the group A leaders, should they avoid defeat against Wydad Casablanca this weekend.

Pirates, on the other hand, will need a win or a draw against Horoya AC this weekend, as they look to fight for a second place finish in group B.
