Back in the PSL, Pitso Mosimane’s Sundowns have reason for optimism too.
Mamelodi Sundowns will begin the task of trying to reel in Absa Premiership leaders Kaizer Chiefs when the Brazilians meet AmaZulu at Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban on Saturday night.
Downs’ consolation for effectively having to cancel Christmas was that their 1-0 away win against USM Alger just outside Algiers on December 28 leaves them on top of the 2019-20 Caf Champions League’s Group C and excellently placed to reach the quarterfinals.Chiefs, surprisingly given their record-low ninth placing last season, could have gone into the Christmas break with an intimidating nine-point gap.
Chiefs, too — as they stormed to 11 wins, two draws and just one defeat from 14 games in the 2019 section of 2019-20 — were never really put under pressure by an on-form chasing team. Downs still have the ACL group and knockout stages to think about. But they have managed such missions impossible before in their half decade of continental ambition that saw them become ACL champions in 2016.
