Sundowns have collected six points in the first two matches of the season, beating Sekhukhune United as well as Kaizer Chiefs, and they are now on a mission for another three points when they host Golden Arrows at Lucas Moripe Stadium this evening.
The Brazilians look set to be without right back Khuliso Mudau, who went off in the first half in the game against Swallows with what looked to be a hamstring injury. This could give Thapelo Morena an opportunity to get into the team.
A player who could get into the matchday squad, and even the starting line-up, is Rivaldo Coetzee. The former Ajax Cape Town player was sent off in the opening match of the season against Sekhukhune, but is available after serving a two-match suspension.
