Clashes between the two sides have become a more regular occurrence in recent years.
Whether it is in Cairo or Tshwane, both Sundowns and Al Ahly have managed to serve up some mouth-watering encounters, usually in front of sold out stadiums.
It is for this reason that Sundowns' veteran goalkeeper Onyango views this clash with starry eyes as the two teams do battle once again in the CAF Champions League group stages.
"Preparations are going well, everyone is looking forward to going to Cairo to face one of the biggest teams on the continent," he said via the club's media department.
"It's always interesting when you play Al Ahly. I think it's becoming one of the biggest derbies on the African continent in terms of the Champions League and clubs, so everyone is looking forward [to it].
"So far so good, we're happy that we're going to play them when we have at least six points and we are on a winning side," he continued.
Onyango has also commented on the status of the squad heading into the mammoth clash on Saturday evening.
"Looking at the way the team has been training the whole week, we don't have so many injuries but I believe that the technical team will choose the best team to travel and get the maximum results," he continued.
