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

After a frustrating draw at home against Al Hilal in the CAF Champions League, Masandawana have an opportunity to return to winning ways. The Tshwane giants are only at the top of the table courtesy of a superior goal difference over Orlando Pirates and cannot afford to drop points at this stage if they are not to complicate their chances of defending the league title. Already, the pressure is building up on head coach Miguel Cardoso, and rumours linking Pitso Mosimane with a return only add more uncertainty over his future at the club.

Mamelodi Sundowns will continue with their Premier Soccer League campaign on Tuesday as they are set to face Sekhukhune United at the Peter Mokaba Stadium.

This is expected to be a tough game for Downs, given that Babina Noko have been quite impressive this campaign. In fact, in their last match, Sekhukhune United held Pirates to a goalless draw and prevented the Soweto giants from claiming back their position at the top of the PSL standings.

A win for Babina Noko will see them go level on points with Sundowns, but such an outcome will complicate Masandawana's mathematics in terms of title defence.

With Pirates pushing them relentlessly, the Pretoria heavyweights cannot afford to drop more points at this juncture of the league.

    Sekhukhune team news & squads

    Against Pirates, new signing Lehlogonolo Mojela started and is expected to keep his place against Sundowns.

    Another new signing, Lebogang Phiri, had a few moments on the pitch when he came on in the 75th minute to replace Thabang Monare.

    Eric Tinkler does not have suspension worries to think about going into the game, and this gives him quite an easy task of selecting his starting line-up.

    Sekhukhune possible XI: Leaner, Mogaila, Ndlovu, Cardoso, Letlapa, Monare, Mkhize, Rammala, Mncube, Mojela, Grobler

    Cardoso will not have his dependable midfield star Teboho Mokoena, as the Bafana Bafana player is suspended.

    This is a big loss for Sundowns, who have always depended on the experienced midfielder. However, his absence gives others a chance to come on and show their worth, too.

    Mamelodi Sundowns possible XI: Williams, Mudau, Basadien, Cupido, Ndamane, Khoza, Allende, Santos, Sales, Matthews, Leon

    Sundowns have been quite dominant in this fixture, and their past performance should give them the needed morale booster going into this encounter.

    However, going by their overall inconsistent performance coupled with Babina Noko's improvement, Sundowns must not entirely bank their hope on past stats.
