The Betway Premiership champions currently find themselves in second place, just a single point adrift of Pirates with eight games after tonight.
Chippa on the other hand occupy 13th place, two points away from the relegation playoff spot having won just four matches the entire campaign, losing 10 games and drawing 11.
Rayners says they have to keep their winning momentum regardless of Chippa’s conundrums.
“It’s always gonna be a difficult one because teams at the bottom, now because it becomes end-of-the-season, they always fighting for their jobs, fighting for their lives, their families,” he said.
“So, it’s not gonna be an easy game, but for us also, it’s just keep the momentum.
“Keep winning games and we take it one game at a time.”
The match gets underway at Lftus Versfeld with kick-off at 19:30.
