What kind of units are you using? Take advantage of every special rule you can! the extra 2" run and retreat is great for setting up great positioning!
I would probably prioritize the chariots and catapults while bogging down the giant with many many rats.
I would say I can give you better advice but without knowing what you have I might just be spouting off units you dont have :/

Try to kill liche priests, if you can their army will crumble. Tomb Kings do not have that great of saves, so nothing to support, they hurt a lot.

Ok
My army list:
3 storm (2 ratling + 1 grinder ) (6)
3 storm (3 warpfire) (6)
Hellcannon (5)
3 flamers (4)
50 clanrats (5)
2 engineer (4)
+ 2 familiars
I am going to kill his necrotect with my hellcannon and to evoke two units of flamers and try to kill his two wizards in first round.
I am going to use stormfiends with grinder for to kill his necrotect or wizards if i can't with others.

Is the clan rats one big unit? If so I would split them into two units to maximize their table precence. I run mine in either 20 or 30, any more after that and you are hampering how many attacks per turn they can get with the +1 bonuses.
Let us know how the Hellcannon goes! Im interested to hear about it in action as I think it looks cool!
Targeting the wizards is a great idea and at first glance I confused the necrotect with necrosphinx haha. That Necrotect will probably be close to that giant I would think so that could give you the opportunity to pull him into combat by engaging the giant first and piling in towards the necro, either that or your opponent will see that coming and move him closer to the catapults which then the stormvermin can gun him down, either way it keeps him from healing the giant!
Hope the game goes great and let us know how it went down!

I don't have Jezzails, only the hellpit. But the necrosphinx if attacks hellpit, kills him.

Drown the necrosphinx in wounds!!!!! I have seen it work and it works well
Also dont have that mentality that "necrosphinx attacks hellpit,kills him". Hellpit is a beast in its own right and can hold its own, necro is strong but eliminate the necrotect to cut off a big portion of its wound regen and go at it with wounds! also get the charge off on him helps aswell, I feel stormvermin are good for this as the will outnumber the sphinx so they will get their bonus!
