Mamelodi Sundowns will be eyeing a spot in the quarter-finals of the CAF Champions League when they host Al Ahly in a crucial Group A clash on Saturday afternoon.
Teams: Mamelodi Sundowns v Al Ahly
Date: 12 March 2022
Venue: FNB Stadium
Time: 15h00
The Brazilians are unbeaten in Group A after they steered three points clear at the top with a 1-0 win over Al Ahly two weeks ago, which was their first ever victory over the Red Devils in Egypt.
Sundowns could be on the cusp of reaching the quarter-finals if they complete a double over Mosimane's charges.
Masandawana will be without co-coach Rhulani Mokwena on the bench due to suspension after he was sent to the stands during the last encounter.
Al Ahly, meanwhile, have another must-win game after they rescued their campaign with a 3-2 victory over Al Merreikh last weekend.
The Red Devils are second in the group with four points and will climb to the top if they win by more than a one goal margin.
The Brazilians played their opening home game at Royal Bafokeng Stadium in a win over Al Hilal but they will host Al Ahly at Kaizer Chiefs' home ground this afternoon.
