Maniema Union vs Mamelodi Sundowns Prediction: The hosts can鈥檛 afford to lose this game

In this highly competitive CAF Champions League fix醼ure, the Brazilians will face off against Maniema Union at the Stade de Martyrs de La Pentec么te in a group of death tomorrow. The hosts are left with no option but to win here to stand a chance of advancing to the knockout phase. 

Maniema Union (DR Congo)

Last four matches: DDDL

Papy Kimoto's men have been a pain in th馃幎e neck for top teams since this tournament began, however, they suffered their first defeat of the group. This time, they were caught off guard by AS FAR Rabat, who wanted the win more. They conceded twice against AS FAR Rabat on the road. 

Maniema Union will play their fifth-ever group饟劎 stage game tomorrow at the Stade de Martyrs de La Pentec么tes. Unfortunately, the Greens and Blacks might not survive this time as they face a very organised 醿ide tomorrow. 

Maniema Union, who won the Congolese league by a significant margin, lack the pedigree in this tournament. They鈥檝e enough quality to produce a great result in this group, and we are backing t饾攭hem to do well. 

Mamelodi Sundowns (South Africa)

Last four games: DDWL

The Brazilians suffered their first defeat of the tournament against Raja Casablanca as Bath馃帎usi Aubaas and 馃厴Khuliso Mudau saw red. Despite the red card, they pushed for a win; unfortunately, they were not effective in front of goal. 

Mamelodi Sundowns are one of the best teams in Africa; they鈥檝e won the CAF Champions League once and have made it out of the group stage饞厡 in five consecutive seasons. Mamelodi Sundowns have not been convincing enough on the road, but they stand a chance against their opponent tomorrow. 

Expert Betting Tips

The reverse leg was just abou軎搕 Mamelodi Sundowns dominating without meaningful impact as they settled for a tie. Mamelodi Sundowns have been a more defensive side since the arrival of coach Cardoso. They have failed to score more than two goals in six consecutive matches. At the same time, Man馃拑iema Union's last four games in this tournament have ended in a total of under 2.5 goals.

This is a game that the home side must win to stand a chance of advancing to the next round, and considering how delicate they can be, I expect them to at least secure a point here. 鈾�;

T鈾恏e guests will be missing some嗟� key players here, and I think they might struggle against Maniema Union. 

Both饟劎 teams have been pretty decent defensively, and I think this game might end in a share of the spoils for 2.97

Good luck!
