Blues coach, Tana Umaga says good preparation will get them a win against the Crusaders this week.

Umaga says focus and belief got them a win over the Highlanders and this should be the same when they face the Crusaders this Friday.

The former All Black captain says they still have a lot to work on defensively but keeping a intense level of concentration within the team will be important.

The Crusaders will look to win against the Blues this week after they were victims of a narrow 27-21 defeat last weekend.

The Crusaders will face the Blues at 6.35pm Friday while the Brumbies play the Waratahs at 8.40pm.
