Rulani Mokwena Fully Prepared For Al Hilal Clash This Afternoon! The Brazilians begin their CAF Champions League campaign this afternoon.

Mamelodi Sundowns host Al Hilal Omdurman at Loftus Versfeld this afternoon. They are hoping to qualify from the group stages for yet another season.

Mamelodi Sundowns come into the match in a rich vein of form.

“The preparations have been good, as you know we played last week, we gave the players a break so that we can give them some recuperation time.” Mokwena tells the club website.

“We restarted on Monday and we worked on the tactical side for the Champions League campaign. We are ready for a difficult game on Saturday” he added.

Al Hilal are also on a good run of form. They are unbeaten in their last 5 matches and have demonstrated their goal scoring capabilities on a number of occasions.

“They are not a closed book as we have watched their games, we watched the games against Asante Kotoko in the qualifiers. Their league is on-going and they are unbeaten, they are a free-scoring side and they are one point behind the team that is number one with a game in hand.

“They play a 4-2-3-1 formation. They have two centre-backs who are comfortable on the ball and can start at the back. They are also good with the set-pieces and they use Faris Abdalla who has quality delivery.

“Mohamed Ouattara is a very important player in terms of their first phase of build-up and can play the long ball behind the defence. We are prepared for the game on Saturday” coach Rulani concluded.
