Newly crowned Ericsson League champions Instant-Dict will attend to some unfinished business when they take on rivals South China at Mongkok Stadium tonight.

Instant-Dict will be hoping to fire themselves back into a competitive mood after nights of celebrations following their league-clinching, 1-0 victory over Happy Valley last Friday.

The Dickies would want to top off their first league title in two years by earning revenge against South China, who beat them 2-0 earlier this month.

Instant-Dict coach Koo Luam-khen admitted it would be hard for his team to muster enough motivation to take on their arch-rivals in a game where pride - and nothing more - will be at stake.

'A lot of the players stayed up very late celebrating after our win over Happy Valley so it will be hard to return to action knowing we have already won the league.

'I just hope we have enough fighting spirit left in us because we still view this match as an important one,' said Koo.
