Mamelodi Sundowns and Swallows FC have announced their starting line-ups for this evening’s DStv Premiership encounter at Loftus Versfeld Stadium.
Downs are coming to this game with a massive confidence, having last lost a league game against their Tshwane rivals Supersport United in September.
Since then Masandawana had seven straight wins in the league and sit on top of the log with 31 points, finishing the year 2022 on a high by beating Orlando Pirates 2-0.
The defending champions are coming to this game without Ethiopian international Abubeker Nasir after he got an injured during Pirates clash.
On the other side, Ernest Midderndorp received a baptism of fire when the Dube Birds got narrowly beaten 1-0 by second-placed Richards Bay.
The pressure mounts on Swallows as they need points, sitting in 14th place on the log, just two above the relegation zone.
Here’s how they line up:
Sundowns XI: Williams, Mudau, Ngobeni, Mvala, Kekana, Mokoena, Maema, Allende, Zwane, Sirino, Mailula.
Swallows FC XI: Mbanjwa, Lukhubeni, Sait, Sasman, Zulu, Mngonyama, Damons, Matsheke, Malinga, Wambi, Allan.
