Brilliant Khuzwayo has shared his thoughts on who he thinks will come out victorious in a Carling Knockout quarter-final encounter between Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns.&nbsp;Amakhosi beat SuperSport United to progress to the last eight, meanwhile, the Brazilians thrashed Golden Arrows to reach this stage. Ahead of the mouth-watering match, Khuzwayo, who played for both Chiefs and Orlando Pirates, has made a bold prediction that favours his old club.&nbsp;

WHAT HAPPENED?

"I'm going to go with my team, to be honest. Do you know the motto that says "Ikhosi Ali Pheli U Moya"? (Amakhosi do not give up), I'm going with my team because I believe they are very strong this season," Khuzwayo told GOAL.&nbsp; "There is confidence from the players. The coach (Nasreddine Nabi) has brought something unique and players are buying into his style. Even in the game that we lost against Sundowns lately, you could see that Downs were pulling back.&nbsp;"Towards the end of the game, you could see a strong side of Kaizer Chiefs, which tells you that they can win this game,'' he added."I give them this one, yes it is going to be a very difficult match but after the final whistle, Chiefs will go on to the semi-finals."&nbsp;

WHAT WAS SAID

Chiefs come to this match after<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/mduduzi-shabalala-saves-kaizer-chiefs-blushes-as-magesi-throw-away-two-goals-in-two-minutes-to-share-the-spoils/bltdf77e67991c0f843" target="_blank"> fighting back from two goals down</a> to earn a point against Magesi FC in a PSL game on Wednesday. On the other hand, Sundowns go to this game brimming with confidence after an <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/peter-shalulile-strikes-twice-as-mamelodi-sundowns-close-gap-on-orlando-pirates-after-cape-town-city-victory/bltd9773a0f9a8ba9cb" target="_blank">impressive win over Cape Town City</a> in a midweek league fixture.&nbsp;Nasreddine Nabi and his charges will be aiming for revenge after Manqoba Mngqithi's side gunned down Chiefs in a league match two months ago.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

A win for Chiefs over Sundowns will boost Nabi and his team's confidence with the Soweto giants having gone nine years without winning a major trophy.The two PSL giants will face each other at a sold-out FNB Stadium.
