Pyramids vs Mamelodi Sundowns Preview: Kick-off time, TV channel & squad news

GOAL gives you all the details of the continental showdown between Masandawana and the ambitious Egyptian side.

The moment of reckoning has come for Mamelodi Sundowns and Pyramids FC as they are set for a do-or-die Caf Champions League second-leg duel in Cairo on Sunday.

Sundowns are looking for their second continental star, while the ambitious and daring Pyramids are hunting for their maiden one.

The Egyptian side has turned into a competitive side in African football, although they have not been around for long. On the other hand, Sundowns have been there and are considered one of the African heavyweights, having won the Champions League race in 2016.

This final is an opportunity for the Brazilians to show Africa that they are indeed a powerhouse, and for Pyramids, it is a chance to prove that they are ready to compete against the top sides in the continent.

Should they win the title, Pyramids will become another Egyptian side to do so outside Al Ahly and Zamalek SC.

Here, GOAL provides all the details you need to know about how to watch the clash between Pyramids and the PSL heavyweights, including TV channels, streaming options, team news, and more.

    Pyramids news & squads

    Pyramids' tactician Krunoslav Jurcic is expected to maintain his lineup that started and came out with a 1-1 draw in Pretoria.

    Given that Jurcic trusted them to take on Masandawana at their own turf, the Bosnian coach should have faith in them again as they host the PSL heavyweights in this match that carries high stakes.

    This is the only opportunity for them to win at least a title in a season that has been impressive, and how about doing that by winning Africa’s premier club competition?

    Pyramids Possible XI: El Shenawy, Samy, Chibi, Hamdy, Marei, Karti, Toure, Lasheen, Adel, Atef, Mayele

    Sundowns news & squads

    With almost everyone available, Migue Cardoso will have a positive headache when he is drafting his starting XI.

    He only has one injury concern: Rivaldo Coetzee, who has been out of action since October last year.

    Mzansi fans will also be keen to see whether captain Themba Zwane can be involved after he was overlooked in the first leg game at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium.

    Sundowns Possible XI: Williams, Mudau, Modiba, Kekana, Lebusa, Mokoena, Allende, Adams, Zwane, Ribeiro, Rayners

    Head-to-head and recent form

    Pyramids have been a solid side this season at home, as they are unbeaten across all competitions. Apart from three draws, they have won all the other games, just showing how dominant they are when playing at home.

    A win against Sundowns means they will stretch their 23-match home unbeaten streak in all competitions.

    On the other hand, Masandawana go into this game having last tasted defeat on April 13, when they lost to Kaizer Chiefs in a Nedbank Cup semi-final duel.

    Since then, they have been near perfect, showing dominance to retain the PSL title, brushing aside Esperance in the Champions League quarterfinal and Al Ahly in the semifinal.

    Although they were held to a one-all draw in the first leg, looking back at how they have performed in recent games and how they took on Al Ahly in Cairo, there is a temptation to brand them pre-match favourites.

    This is the fourth time Pyramids are meeting with Sundowns. In the 2023-24 season, they met twice in the group stage of the Champions League. In Pretoria, the match ended in a 0-0 draw before Sundowns claimed a 1-0 win in Egypt.

    Their last meeting was the 1-1 draw on May 24, 2025, at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium, when Pyramids scored a late goal to stun the home side.
