Recent Form and Head-to-Head Record
Sundowns have been dominant this season, losing only twice in 19 matches, accumulating 51 points, and leading the table by 15 points over Orlando Pirates. Chiefs, on the other hand, have had an inconsistent campaign, winning seven, losing seven, and drawing four of their 18 games.
In their last ten meetings across all competitions, Sundowns have won eight, while two ended in draws. This season, the two sides have already met twice, with the Brazilians emerging victorious on both occasions.
What They Said
Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso has downplayed the favourites tag, stating that his team must give 100% on the pitch to secure victory.
“In me, there is no lack of ambition, never. If I take the tag of favourites in this match, I will be passing the energy to my players, and they don’t need that. There are no favourites when the whistle starts,” Cardoso said.
Kaizer Chiefs defender Inacio Miguel, on the other hand, believes a win against Sundowns could be the turning point for the club.
“A win would change everything after a bad result like last week. If we come with a win, we won’t be thinking about it,” Miguel told the media.
Team News and Probable Line-ups
Sundowns will be without first-choice goalkeeper Ronwen Williams due to injury, while Denis Onyango is suspended along with defender Aubrey Modiba. Chiefs will miss the services of Gaston Sirino due to suspension, with Wandile Duba and Ashley Du Preez still nursing injuries.
