Conclusion


Mamelodi Sundowns have established themselves as the dominant force in this fixture, with an impressive record against AmaZulu across league and cup competitions.

The Brazilians' attacking quality has regularly proved too much for Usuthu, with Sundowns recording several convincing victories over the Durban outfit.

AmaZulu have nevertheless demonstrated that they can compete with the Pretoria giants, particularly in knockout football, as illustrated by their 2010 Nedbank Cup penalty shootout victory.

With Sundowns' impressive historical record and recent results favouring Masandawana, they will be looking to maintain their dominance when the two sides next meet.
