Pyramids vs Mamelodi Sundowns Prediction: From Mamelodi to Cairo

Mamelodi Sundowns travel north in search of all three points in the CAF Champions League. The last time these two teams met it was a defensive master class by Pyramids that left everyone on the edge of their seats. Group A is wide open with everyone sitting on 4 points. A win in this match will go a long way to securing progress to the next stage of the CAF Champions League.

Here are markets to consider adding to your bet slip...

3 Way – Away 31/20 

In the reverse fixture, both teams failed to find the back of the net. Mamelodi Sundowns enjoyed the lion’s share of the position but at full time they had nothing to show for it. They had more shots at goal and more shots on target. their Egyptian counterparts had no shots on target and had 2 yellow cards and red card in the dying ambers of the game.

For Mamelodi Sundowns they will feel that there is unfinished business. Pyramids on the other hand are enjoying their spell in the CAF Champions League. A competition that has been dominated by another Egyptian side Al Ahly. On occasion Zamalek would be the Egyptian side to strut their stuff at this level of the game. 

The odds-on pyramids taking all three points at home against Mzansi’s finest are set at 3/2, a draw is set at 9/4 and if the away side affectionately known as the Brazilians was to walk away with all three points the odds are set at 31/20. If the reverse fixture is anything to go by, expect a tactical master class from both sides and a Mamelodi Sundowns win 31/20.

Both Teams To Score – No 43/50 

Pyramids have the home advantage but from their display against last time out against Mamelodi Sundowns. They did not create a lot of chances in open play. They relied more on the counter attack and with Mamelodi Sundowns looking to sercure passage to the next round in a group this open. Rhulani Mokwena will be hoping his side can score goals in this fixture. This match may end with one team on the score sheet or none. Both teams to score is a no for me 43/50. 

Double Chance – Draw or Away 43/100  

Pyraminds come into this game in terrible form, they have 2 wins in their last 7 and they have not registered a single win in their last 3. They will struggle to get a result out of this fixture. Mamelodi Sundowns have been on a decent run with no losses in their last 3 matches. They also managed to win 6 out of their last 7 matches. The safe bet would be to consider having a double chance bet on draw or away 43/100.
