The Brazilians will take on Moroka Swallows in the league before turning their attention to the CAF Champions League. Sundowns have a 13-point lead over Stellenbosch United in the league, and have two games in hand.

Rulani Mokwena's squad are on course to retain the title and break a few more records in the process.

Sundowns' next game against Swallows will take place on Monday, April 15, to allow Sundowns time to prepare for their game against Esperance de Tunis.
