The Rabbitohs are aiming to strengthen their position in the top eight as they prepare to host the Warriors on Sunday afternoon.
According to nrl.com.au, Wayne Bennett's team is rejuvenated after a week off and eager to build on their recent victory over the Wests Tigers in Round 11.
Halfback Jamie Humphreys, continuing to hone his skills, is anticipated to engage in a compelling face-off against the Warriors' in-form playmaker, Luke Metcalf.
Currently, the 26-year-old Humphreys stands as the Dally M leader, boasting a two-point advantage over Cronulla's Will Kennedy, with voting set to close from Round 13 onwards.
On the other side, the Warriors are looking to bounce back from a narrow loss to Canberra last weekend, which marked their first defeat in New Zealand this season.
They are hopeful that traveling away from home will offer an immediate opportunity for redemption.
Andrew Webster's squad has demonstrated strong performances on the road, winning five of their last six games in Australia.
