Enjoy an image gallery of Mamelodi Sundowns’ training session ahead of their opening CAF Champions League group stage clash against Maniema Union on Tuesday evening.

The Brazilians will kickstart their Group K fixture when they welcome the Congolese side to Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria.

Sundowns will come into this fixture looking to bounce back following their shock 2-1 defeat to Magesi FC in the final of the Carling Knockout Cup over the weekend.

Maniema Union, meanwhile, enters this clash off the back of a 1-0 win over Celeste in the Linafoot Ligue 1 at the Stade des Martyrs on November 20.

Mamelodi Sundowns against Maniema Union kicks off at 6pm on Tuesday.

Here are a few images of Mamelodi Sundowns’ training session:
