Carling Knockout

The Brazilians come into this encounter in some fine form, having won their last five matches across all competitions.
The last of those five wins came against Kaizer Chiefs at the FNB Stadium in the Betway Premiership.
Sundowns will be hoping for a better Carling Knockout campaign this term after losing to TS Galaxy in the first round last season.
Arrows, meanwhile, made it to the quarter-finals last season but were eliminated by KwaZulu-Natal rivals AmaZulu.
This season, Arrows come into the encounter on the back of two successive defeats in the league.
