    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Sundowns will be without several key players as ten members of the Tshwane giants are currently in their national team's commitment.

    Downs will play Magesi FC in a Carling Knockout final scheduled for Saturday, November 19. This could be another reason that might motivate Mngqithi to provide opportunities for less regular players as he would want key players ready in the final.

    On the other hand, Chiefs could potentially field their ideal starting lineup, as only three players from the Soweto giants are away on international duty.

    The Home of Legends Cup tournament, arranged by the Nelson Mandela Bay Development Agency, is scheduled for Saturday, November 16.

    Casual players, particularly from Chiefs and Sundowns, will be aiming to make a lasting impression throughout the tournament.
