If there's one team capable of putting excitement aside and focusing on the job at gand, it's Mamelodi Sundowns.
Fresh from booking a spot in the CAF Champions League last Friday, the Tshwane giants have to quickly put that excitement aside and focus on getting closer to another Premiership title. Next on the schedule is Richards Bay, who travel to Pretoria to visit the log leaders at Loftus Stadium on Wednesday.

Sundowns' legendary goalkeeper, Denis Onyango, stressed the importance of switching their focus and getting the job done on home soil.
"Of course, it's not an easy task for the boys. We take every game the way it comes. Right now we are focusing on the Betway Premiership because we must lift the trophy. When it's time for the Champions League, we will also switch focus to the Champions League. Every game is a final for us and we hope that we win our remaining games," Onyango said via the Sundowns media department.
"Very difficult game, especially because we were playing in the Champions League. We have to switch our focus to the Richards Bay. They are a hard running team. They are fighting for their lives and we know that. We have the quality and we must stay focused as much as possible and get the results in our remaining games."

Sundowns have a nine point lead over second-placed Orlando Pirates, who have two matches in hand. Miguel Cardoso's men would certainly want to ensure they do not squander their lead.
