The stage is set for a historic showdown as Mamelodi Sundowns welcome Pyramids FCto South Africa for the first leg of the CAF Champions League final.
Sundowns, guided by former Celta Vigo manager Miguel Cardoso, head into the tie riding a wave of momentum. They sealed yet another South African top-flight title last weekend with a confident 2-0 win over Magesi, extending their unbeaten run across all competitions to eight matches.
Their Egyptian opponents, Pyramids FC, are also in fine form. A 2-0 win over Petrojet in the Egyptian Premier League championship round kept them hot on the heels of Al Ahly in the title race. In the semi-finals of this competition, they edged past Orlando Pirates 3-2 on aggregate to book their spot in the final.
With home advantage in the first leg, the pressure is on Sundowns to make it count—and given their recent run, backing the South African side to draw first blood seems a smart call.

Mamelodi Sundowns FC team news
For Sundowns, Rivaldo Coetzee remains sidelined as he continues his recovery from an ACL injury suffered in October. While he's edging closer to a return, it's unlikely head coach Miguel Cardoso will risk throwing him straight into such a high-stakes clash.
Pyramids FC team news
Pyramids FC could be without Abdelrahman Magdy and Ramadan Sobhi, both nursing knocks. Sobhi's fitness remains in doubt amid ongoing exit rumours, though he played a pivotal role with a goal in the semi-final and could yet be a game-changer if passed fit.
