Polokwane City coach Jozef Vukusic believes Mamelodi Sundowns are highly motivated ahead of Tuesday’s Premiership clash at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria.
Sundowns have not been in action since losing 3-1 to Maritzburg United on 8 February but Vukusic has since revealed he has worked hard on the team in key problem areas. Kickoff is from 19:30.
A victory could see the Brazilians go top of the table whereas Rise and Shine need some points to get back into the fight for a top eight finish.
Speaking to Kickoff, he said: “We are ready for the game I think. So all players are fit, we have no injured players and we know which game we have to expect.
“They are very motivated, they didn’t play after Champions League as well [over the weekend]. So I hope for a very good game from both sides.
“They are there top, they have the highest ambition, it’s the champion so for us it’s a good challenge for my team, especially after last game and good motivation that game.”
