Maniema Union vs Mamelodi Sundowns Preview

Sundowns have the quality to get the win away from home despite suffering defeat last weekend. A win to nil is backed.

Head to Head

In three previous encounters, Sundowns have won once and there have been two draws. They last met in November 2024, a match that ended 0-0.

Maniema Union Form & News

Maniema have lost just once of their four CAF group games but three have ended in stalemates. In the DR Congo Ligue 1, they sit second in the table with three games in hand.

After a fine 0-0 draw at Mamelodi Sundowns, they lost 2-1 at Rangers in a league match. Successive 1-1 CAF Champions League draws followed at home, versus Raja Casablanca and FAR Rabat.

Following a 3-2 home league win over Kuya Sort, they lost 2-0 in Morocco last weekend to FAR Rabat. That loss left them bottom of Group B.

Coach Papy Kimoto could again be without forward Émeraude Mola Otinga. He was injured in late November and remains a question mark.

There are no other major injuries or suspensions for the Congolese giants to contend with.

Mamelodi Sundowns Form & News

Sundowns have won all four matches under new coach Miguel Cardoso before last week’s defeat. They have just five points from four CAF group matches (DDWL) but still top their section.

After a cup final defeat and two CAF Champions League draws, a new coach was appointed. Sundowns responded by beating Raja Casablanca 1-0 at home and then winning 1-0 at Stellenbosch.

A 1-0 win followed at AmaZulu with ten men thanks to a last-minute goal. After winning 2-0 at Richards Bay, they lost 1-0 away to Raja Casablanca as they finished with nine men.

Right back Khuliso Mudau and defensive midfielder Bathusi Aubaas were red-carded last weekend. Both will serve suspensions in this match.

Central midfielder Rivaldo Coetzee is out injured and so is key playmaker Themba Zwane.

Verdict

Maniema Union v Mamelodi Sundowns
