SuperSport United and Mamelodi Sundowns have announced their starting XIs for today’s Tshwane Derby in Atteridgeville.
The Tshwane derby takes place this evening, in a battle between first and third on the table. However there is a sizeable gap of 12 points between the two rivals.
Both teams come into the game on the back of victories, with SuperSport having won 1-0 away at Stellenbosch, while Sundowns beat Royal AM 3-2.
The two teams meet just two weeks ago, when SuperSport came from two goals down to force a 2-2 draw.
Andile Jali misses out for Sundowns through suspension, as does Thalente Mbatha for SuperSport.
Just hours before the game, SuperSport announced a covid outbreak at the club, and that head coach Kaitano Tembo and a number of regulars would miss the game.
The game is set for 20:15 at the Masterpieces Moripe Stadium.
Here is how they line up:
SuperSport XI: Pule, Nhlapo, Johannes, Ditlhokwe, Bhasera, Phillips, Waiswa, Webber, Rayners, Lungu, Gabuza
