Mbabane Swallows vs Mamelodi Sundowns Preview

Mbabane Swallows have been in superb form of late while Sundowns have been slightly inconsistent. However, that said, Sundowns are a superior outfit and should have just about enough quality to take a closely fought win.

Mbabane Swallows Form & News

Swallows won the Eswatini Premier League last season by five points. They lost just one of their 26 league matches.

They won their final eight matches. A 7-2 home win over Manzini Sea Birds was followed by two more wins and a final day 3-1 victory over Young Buffaloes.

In the first round of qualifying for the CAF Champions League, they faced Mozambiquan side Ferroviário Beira. A 1-0 home win was followed by a 0-0 away draw to progress on aggregate.

Mamelodi Sundowns Form & News

Sundowns are struggling to win matches right now. Their last five fixtures have not seen a single win in 90 minutes with four defeats.

A 1-0 home defeat vs Cape Town City in round 30 ended their invincible season. A 2-1 Nedbank Cup final defeat followed vs Orlando Pirates.

This season began with a 1-0 win in extra time over Polokwane City with ten men in the MTN8 Cup. Their last two matches saw 1-0 losses to Stellenbosch FC to lose 2-0 on aggregate in the MTN8 semi-finals.

Goalkeeper Denis Onyango is available after suspension whilst fellow ‘keeper Ronwen Williams is an injury doubt. New striker Arthur Sales is competing with Peter Shalulile to start up front.

Five players started for Bafana Bafana on Tuesday in South Sudan. They may all be handed rests for this match.

Verdict

Mbabane Swallows v Mamelodi Sundowns

I'm tipping BTTS No in this one with a narrow Sundowns win.
