Mamelodi Sundowns host Bloemfontein Celtic at Lucas Moripe Stadium for their first PSL match of the 2020/21 campaign in the form of an MTN8 clash.
The two teams closed the 2019/20 campaign after meeting in the Nedbank Cup final with Mamelodi Sundowns achieving a 1-0 victory thanks to a good finish from Gaston Sirino on the night. It’s a new season and a new competition in the form of MTN8 tonight, but a win for either team remains the priority.
Mamelodi Sundowns will no doubt be eager to see how they fare with Manqoba Mngqithi’s new managerial trio, Rhulani Mokwena and Steve Komphela. This comes after the abrupt departure of Pitso Mosimane after a very successful spell at the club.
The previous 79 meetings between Sundowns and Bloemfontein Celtic have seen the defending league champions walk away with 43 wins, while Phunya Sele Sele has collected just 16 wins. The remaining 20 matches ended in a draw.
