Teams: Mamelodi Sundowns v Polokwane City
Date: 21 December 2019
Venue: Loftus Versfeld Stadium
Mamelodi Sundowns continue their busy festive schedule with the visit of Polokwane City in the Absa Premiership on Saturday evening.
Due to their involvment in the CAF Champions League, Sundowns have been playing catch up in the league although they could only draw 1-1 with Bidvest Wits in a catch-up fixture on Tuesday.
Pitso Mosimane's charges sit nine points behind Absa Premiership leaders Kaize Chiefs, who are only in action on Sunday afternoon.
At the other end of the scale, Polokwane will be desperate for three points as they currently on a nine-game losing run across all competitions.
Rise and Shine find themselves 14th position, but they could end the year bottom if they lose and other results go aganist them.
Polokwane can take comfort from the fact that claimed a 1-1 draw in this fixture last season.
