Manage episode 483879953 series 2610075
It's the final countdown as we build up to the first leg of the 2025 CAF Champions League final between South African powerhouse Mamelodi Sundowns and Egyptian newcomers Pyramids FC this weekend. Loftus is set to be a sea of yellow as the "Brazilians" host the first leg and look for a crucial home win ahead of the return leg in Cairo. Pyramids have a number of injuries ahead of the game, and a congested fixture schedule to contend with, while Sundowns will want to show that they can win when it matters most to secure their second star. We give you our predictions, talk about which players you need to keep a close eye on, and also give context to how the majority of Egyptian football will be rooting for Sundowns.
