Mamelodi Sundowns have confirmed their starting line-up for their Betway Premiership encounter against Durban City, with the Brazilians making several selections as they look to secure maximum points.
The Tshwane giants will be hoping to produce a strong performance and continue their push for success in the league, knowing that every point could prove important as the campaign progresses.
Goalkeeper Goss has been selected to start between the posts, with Ndamane, Khoza, Matuludi and Modiba forming the defensive unit. The four defenders will be expected to provide stability at the back while helping Sundowns build attacks from their own half.
In midfield, Aubaas and Allende have been handed starting roles, with Santos and Matthews also included. Their responsibilities will include controlling possession, linking the defensive and attacking departments and creating opportunities for the forwards.
Sundowns have also named Mailula and Leon in the attacking positions. Both players will be looking to make their presence felt in the final third and help the team find a breakthrough against Durban City.
The starting selection gives the Brazilians a combination of options across the pitch as they prepare for what could be a demanding encounter.
Durban City, however, will not want to make things easy for their opponents. Facing a club with Sundowns' ambitions provides an opportunity to test themselves against one of the biggest sides in South African football.
For Sundowns, the priority will be to turn their team selection into a convincing performance and collect all three points. Their ability to control the tempo, create scoring opportunities and remain defensively organised could play a major role in determining the outcome.
With the starting XI officially announced, all eyes will be on the selected players as Sundowns prepare to take on Durban City in the Betway Premiership.
