CAF Champions League: Sundowns – Al Hilal, probable lineups

On the occasion of the third matchday in the CAF Champions League group stage, Mamelodi Sundowns host Al Hilal Omdurman this Friday night at Loftus Versfeld Stadium, in a high-stakes clash that could shape the group’s hierarchy. Buoyed by their recent league win over Orbit College (2-0), the South Africans enter this continental showdown aiming to reinforce their home dominance.

Sundowns: balancing consistency and continental ambition

Beaten in last season’s final by Pyramids FC, Miguel Cardoso’s men have made no secret of their determination to go further this year. After an impressive opening win against Saint-Eloi Lupopo (3-1) and a hard-fought draw away to MC Alger, Sundowns have already laid a solid foundation. The Portuguese tactician is expected to rely on his experienced core this time, having rotated extensively in their last league outing.

Probable lineups

Mamelodi Sundowns: Ronwen Williams - Khuliso Mudau - Keanu Cupido - Grant Kekana - Aubrey Modiba - Teboho Mokoena - Marcelo Allende - Nuno Santos - Tashreeq Matthews - Iqraam Rayners - Arthur Sales.

Al Hilal Omdurman: Farid Ouédraogo - Steven Ebuela - Mohamed Saeed Ahmed - Mustafa Karshoum - Khadim Diaw - Madické Kane, Walieldin Khidir - Abdelrazig Abderraouf Omer - Adama Coulibaly - Mohamed Abdel Raman - Sunday Adetunji.
