Youth Africans have lost 2 of their last 5 matches.
Youth Africans have seen BTTS No in 5 of their last 7 matches.

Head to Head

These sides met for the first time last weekend.

They played out a 0-0 draw in Tanzania in the first leg.

Mamelodi Sundowns Form & Team News

Sundowns are unbeaten in 17 fixtures with 14 clean sheets. They’ve been a bit goal-shy of late with just seven goals scored in the last six matches.

A 2-0 home win against Chippa Unite preceded a 1-1 draw vs SuperSport United. A 2-0 home win vs Maritzburg United followed in the Nedbank Cup before a 0-0 draw away at Young Africans last Saturday.

In midweek, Sundowns rested their entire XI. They needed a very late goal to beat Richards Bay 1-0 at home in the DSTV Premiership.

Rhulani Mokwena will recall all of his big guns. Centre back Mosa Lebusa has gone down with injury.

Bongani Zungu will play no part in midfield due to injury either. Attacking midfielder Themba Zwane returns after being suspended for the first leg.

Mamelodi Sundowns Predicted Lineup

Williams; Mudau, Kekana, Mvala, Modiba; Allende, Mokoena, Mkhulise; Zwane; Ribeiro, Shalulile.

Youth Africans Form & Team News

Yanga looks likely to win the Tanzanian Ligi Kuu Bara. They are five points clear of Azam at the top of the table with a game in hand.

A 4-0 home win in the CAF Champions League vs Belouizdad sealed qualification from Group D. A 1-0 defeat away to Al Ahly saw them finish in second spot.

Three successive league wins were followed by a 2-1 loss at title rivals Azam. Last weekend, Yanga drew 0-0 at home with Mamelodi Sundowns with just 31% possession.

Coach Miguel Angel Gamondi hopes to have key man Khalid Aucho available. He missed the first leg with a knee injury.

Central midfielder Pacôme Zouzoua and centre back Kouassi Attohoula Yao are ruled out. Yanga could again use a back five.

Youth Africans Predicted Lineup

Diarra; Nzengeli, Job, Mwamnyeto, Hamad, Mutambala; Yahya, Aucho; Musonda, Mzize, Ki.

Verdict

Mamelodi Sundowns v Young Africans

I see Sundowns winning this match with yet another clean sheet. I'm backing them to beat the -2 handicap at home as a high-value bet.
