Sundowns made it through to the semi-finals after thrashing Kaizer Chiefs 4-0 in the quarter-finals courtesy of a brace from Iqraam Rayners and a goal apiece from Peter Shalulile and Khuliso Mudau last weekend.
Masandawana were in league action in midweek as they beat Polokwane City 2-0 and remained within three points of leaders Orlando Pirates in second spot on the table.
Gallants, meanwhile, qualified for the semi-finals after edging Stellenbosch 1-0 in the quarter-finals thanks to a goal by Siyabulela Shai.
Siwelele Sa Marumo did not have any league game during the week as they lost 1-0 to Stellies prior to their cup game and they dropped down to 14th in the standings.
The sides have met in the league this season in September, as the Tshwane giants hammered them 4-1 with goals from Tashreeq Matthews, Iqraam Rayners, Lucas Ribeiro Costa and Sphelele Mkhulise.
Gallants' consolation goal was scored by Gabadinho Mhango.
