Stellenbosch are feeling the good vibes thanks to a 4-0 win over Highlands Park last Sunday.
And they are hoping to build on that when they face Baroka FC at Athlone Stadium tonight.
There was a brace from fit-again hitman Iqraam Rayners against the Lions of the North at the weekend to lift the Bolanders two points clear of the relegation zone.
But with Baroka one point below coach Steve Barker’s manne, the boss wants his team to dig in and take points off their closest rivals in order to build a gap.

He explains: “As soon as you play teams who are around you it’s critical to get favourable results. “Three games, nine points; we need a good return.
“This league has shown me that there are no easy fixtures, whether you play number one or number 16, you have to perform.
“The next three fixtures are like cup finals for us and we have to approach it as such, it can go a long way in determining where we end up at the end of the season.
“Coming off a big win we hope that can be a catalyst for better performances going forward.”
