Mamelodi Sundowns Form

Mamelodi Sundowns Reserves have faired much better in the Diski league since the end of year break.

They narrowly lost to league leaders Pirates 3-2, were held to a 1-1 draw with Maritzburg United and defeated Royal AM 4-2 last Saturday. That was their first victory in six matches.

Sundowns remain in 5th place on the log on 23 points from 14 matches, with seven wins, two draws and five defeats. They have grabbed 24 goals and have conceded 16.

After four home wins in a row at the beginning of the season, the young Brazilians lost their next three, whilst their recent outing was a draw.

They have scored 15 goals at home, which is a decent return and have let in 10.

Mamelodi Sundowns have looked more solid of late and appear to be returning to the form they showed earlier in the campaign. They could move into the top three on the Diski table if they secure the three points in Pretoria this Sunday.

Top goal-scorer Jerome Karelse is out through injury.

Baroka FC Form

Baroka FC suffered their second successive defeat last Sunday when they lost 4-1 to Amazulu.

Baroka's last two matches have seen them let in seven goals at the back. Coach Thoka will need to have his defence well organised this weekend.

That loss has seen Baroka slip from 4th on the Diski table to 6th overall. They have 22 points from the 14 matches they have played, have scored 20 goals and conceded 24.

On the road this season, Barkoa FC started well with two victories, but their last three away games have seen them win one and lose two. They have netted 9 goals and conceded 9 in those matches.

Baroka seems to be out of sorts defensively at present, and a solid performance by their back four is required to give the chance to pick up the points and remain in the hunt for a top-four finish.

Baroka FC Team News & Injuries

From the end of November last year, Coach Matsemela Thoka was demoted to training the Diski squad after a poor run of results in charge of the first team in the PSL.

Coach Thoka might need to change up his selections after two disappointing defeats in a row,

Captain Bernard Bobete has bagged four goals for Baroka this season and will be leading from the front.
