Sundowns And Chiefs Prepare For CAF Champions League Duty! The two South African teams have contrasting fortunes in the competition at the moment.
Mamelodi Sundowns became the first team to qualify into the last 8 of the tournament. At the moment, the CAF Champions League will offer The Brazilians to provide game time to those who need it.
They will do this with the necessary provisions though. Even though qualification has been confirmed, Sundowns will want to respect their last two games and finish top of the group.
A number 1 position presents easier opponents in the quarter final stages.
Masandawana had a number of players away during the FIFA international break. This creates even more fatigue for the already fixture congested squad.
So, a break this Friday will be welcome.
Sundowns play Al Hilal Omdurman of Sudan on Friday (2 April 2021). They beat these opponents 2-0 at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium in February the last time they met.
Kaizer Chiefs on the other hand are extremely desperate for points at the moment. They host group leaders Wydad Casablanca of Morocco.
Amakhosi were embarrassed 4-0 in Burkina Faso (neutral venue) the last time they faced each other.
Chiefs go into this game sitting on 5 points from 4 matches. They are level with Horoya but trail them on goal difference.
An unlikely win will set The Phefeni Glamour Boys on course to qualify from the group. They will play Horoya in their penultimate group game to settle who will finish in 2nd place in the group. Kaizer Chiefs play Wydad Casablanca on Saturday (3 April 2021).
