The Siya crew has been led to believe that Bafana Bafana captain Ronwen Williams is set to make a return straight into the starting line-up as Mamelodi Sundowns prepare to kickstart another continental adventure.
With the international break coming to an end in midweek, club football will be back. The Betway Premiership will commence this weekend, but Sundowns' domestic campaign will only get underway next week as they first start their Champions League journey on Saturday against Mbabane Swallows, at Lucas Moripe Stadium.

Swallows will host the first leg match in Tshwane and Williams looks set to make a return to the starting line-up, having recently returned to training with the rest of his teammates after recovering from injury.
Indications are that the former SuperSport United player is fit enough to start a match and the technical team is ready to give him his first start of the campaign, after missing out on MTN8 action due to injury.
Jody February has been in goal for Sundowns' last two matches and Denis Onyango will be available for selection as well, but it's believed that the Sundowns technical team see the game against Swallows as the perfect opportunity to give Williams a run and valuable minutes before the club gets the domestic league campaign underway.
