Mamelodi Sundowns touch down in Nelspruit for a match of their lives against TS Galaxy

Mamelodi Sundowns have touched down in Nelpruit for what is an important match of their season.

The Brazilians have never found themselves looking for favours in pursuit of the PSL title or any trophy.

But tonight is different.

They face TS Galaxy, who have somewhat became their hoodoo team in recent seasons, at Mbombela Stadium seeking to win by more than eight goals.

This is not what they have been accustomed to, the Sundowns players must be telling themselves.

Yes, they are on top of the Betway Premiership standings with a three point gap between them and second placed Orlando Pirates.

But should Pirates win all their remaining games they will beat Sundowns to the title through a superior goal difference.

And Galaxy are surely going to bring a fight as they are also keen on not being in the relegation mix.
