Sundowns have won 10 of their last 13 matches. They can win a third trophy on Sunday, but have crashed out of the CAF Champions League in the qualifying rounds
Sundowns have two trophies this season already, but also saw their defence of the CAF Champions League crown end early. Their last 13 matches have seen nine wins.
A 4-1 league win over Richards Bay was followed by a 0-0 draw in Angol against Wiliete. A 1-1 home draw in the second leg saw the Brazilians eliminated from continental competition on away goals.
The Brazilians rotated heavily in midweek in a 1-0 win over Marumo Gallants in the Carling Knockout Cup. On Saturday, they beat Richards Bay 4-1 in a totally dominant display.

A 4-0 home win over Chippa United in the Carling Knockout Cup was a boost to confidence. However, they lost 1-0 at AmaZulu on Saturday despite put up 0.70 xG more than their opponents.
Predicted Lineups & News
Mamelodi Sundowns (4-2-3-1): Goss; Matuludi, Khoza, Ndamane, Basadien; Aubaas, Allende; Ndlovu, Santos, Matthews; Rayners.
Sundowns are without three key defenders for this match. Grant Kekana, Keanu Cupido and Khuliso Mudau will play no part.
Key midfielder Teboho Mokoena is doubtful with a knee injury. Goalkeeper Ronwen Williams will need a late fitness test to determine his involvement.
Golden Arrows (4-3-3): Mbanjwa; Shezi, Jiyane, Agnikoi, Maluleke; Dlamini, Zwane, Maxwele; Van Neel, Dion, Gasa.
Arrows are without Edward Maova in goal due to injury. Dumisani Msibi or Thakasani Mbanjwa will deputise.
Coach Mandla Ncikazi may make some changes in attack. Speedy young wingers Renaldo Van Neel and Nhlanhla Gasa are pushing to start.
Verdict
Sundowns are backed to win with a clean sheet. I see Downs scoring Over 2.5 team goals.
Sundowns win to nil
