Mamelodi Sundowns captain Themba Zwane is expecting a tough battle against Chippa United despite the Brazilian’s form in the DStv Premiership season.

The Brazilians are set to welcome the Chilli Boys to the Lucas Moripe Stadium in the DStv Premiership on Saturday evening.

Rulani Mokwena’s side will be looking to continue their current form and extend their unbeaten run in the league to 41 matches.

After their mid-week DStv Premiership clash against TS Galaxy was postponed, Zwane says his side are fully focused on the match ahead.

“It won’t be an easy game. whenever we play against Chippa United the energy is more than usual,” Zwane told his club’s official website.

“They got good results in their previous game against Richards Bay and we know they are going to come to Pretoria with full force but we are ready for them.

“We watched their game against Richards Bay and now is to analyse them, prepare for them and try to win the game.

“It drops the momentum but at the same time it has given us more time to rest and recover. It also has given us extra time to plan for the game on Saturday.

“We are asking the Yellow Nation to come to the stadium in numbers and support us. We can’t wait to hear them sing. It’s going to be an exciting game of good football and a game which I think is a must to watch.”
