Sundowns and Swallows meet in the first leg of the second preliminary round of the Caf Champions League at Lucas Moripe Stadium.
“They’re very good on set pieces, strong on transition and you're playing against a very quick team," Mngqithi said.
Mamelodi Sundowns coach Manqoba Mngqithi is not taking Mbabane Swallows of Eswatini lightly in what many expect to be a walkover for the Tshwane giants. The Brazilians are overwhelming favourites ahead of the two-legged tie where the winner will qualify for the group stage of Africa’s premier competition.“We’ve had a chance to prepare the team over the FIFA break.
Technically, Swallows are the home team after choosing to use the venue in Tshwane as their home ground is not fit to host CAF inter-club matches.
