Mamelodi Sundowns forward Kermit Erasmus says his team’s unity sets them apart from the competition, adding his side are looking how to capitalise on Golden Arrows’ weaknesses as they aim to take another step towards the title.

The Brazilians have continued their dominance of South African football this campaign as they look on course for a fifth consecutive league title, while they have also sealed their progression to the Nedbank Cup semi-finals and Caf Champions League quarters.

Speaking ahead of his side’s clash with Lamontville Golden Arrows on Tuesday afternoon, Erasmus told the club’s media department that they have prepared well and are ready for the challenge.

“Our camp is always interesting, I look forward to being part of it. The brotherhood and camaraderie are amazing and we can only go from strength to strength from here,” said Erasmus.

“We showed in the past games that we have been sticking together and fighting for one another and we have been working hard as a unit.

“As a collective I think we are more powerful and a force to be reckoned with, so we are looking forward to the upcoming games. Where we are at the moment wouldn’t be possible if we were not a collective.

“Our preparations have been good and we are not worried about the danger they bring. We are focusing on how we can capitalise on their weaknesses and what we have planned for this game,” he said.

“So, we are looking forward to it and we will see what the game will bring. They are always a difficult team to play against. They are always playing on the counter and they have a quick front three or four.”

Meanwhile, Arrows defender Thabani Zuke, admitted his side will need to keep their shape and discipline against Sundowns to stand any chance of winning.

“It is not going to be easy. Sundowns are currently on form. When they bring players, who were not playing, they come and perform,” Zuke told the Sowetan on Monday.

“They changed almost the whole team in their last game and managed to win with a big score, so we have to convert the chances we create and keep the shape.”
