Royal AM and Mamelodi Sundowns have announced their starting line-ups for their Nedbank Cup semi-final.
After Marumo Gallants beat Tshakuma FC 1-0 to book their spot in the Nedbank Cup final last night, they are now waiting to find out who are they going to face next month in the final.
Mamelodi Sundowns secured their fifth league title on Wednesday when they played a 0-0 draw against Cape Town City and they will hope of keeping domestic treble hopes alive.
Masandawana already lifted the MTN 8 at the beginning of the season and secured the league, with the Nedbank Cup potentially completing their title-hat-trick.
However, John Maduka’s men are still standing in the way. Maduka led Bloemfontein Celtic to the Nedbank Cup final a season ago will hope of doing the same with ‘Thwihli Thwahla’.
It won’t be the first time these two sides are battling against each other this season as Downs came up victorious by a 3-2 scoreline when they met at Loftus Stadium in the DStv Premiership in December.
Maduka’s side have a decent home record, losing only to Cape Town City at the beginning of the season but are now unbeaten in 14 matches at home. In addition, they are also yet to suffer defeat in 2022, going 12 matches without a defeat.
Here is how they line up:
Royal AM: Nyame, Mkhize, Matlaba, Mabuza, Manganyi, Mahlasela, Letsoalo, Rikhotso, Msomi, Macuphu, Mogaila.
Subs: Heugh, Potsane, Monamodi, Thikazi, Ncobeni, Mabena, George, Mashikinya, Phalane.
Sundowns: Onyango, Kekana, Modiba, Mudau, Brian Onyango, Jali, Maboe, Ralani, Maema, Safranko, Shalulile.
Subs: Mweene, Lakay, Domingo, Mokoena, Kutumela, Lunga, Zwane, Sirino, Mkhulise.
