The Brazilians have been the best side in this competition and stand a better chance of advancing to the final. Mamelodi Sundowns are among the top teams in the South African DSTV Premier League, and their performance in the Champions League have been impressive. They have dominated this tournament, scoring twenty goals and conceding ten in their previous nine matches. With Peter Shalulile and Cassius Mailula leading the charge, Mamelodi Sundowns boast a potent attack that can cause problems for any team. Mamelodi are the only unbeaten side in this competition; we can see them getting all the points here.

The Red Castle have been phenomenal since their last defeat in the opening game. Wydad Casablanca are the defending champions and head here after failing to take advantage of the Brazilians' two red cards. Wydad Casablanca have won all their home games in this competition. Wydad Casablanca were the second-best in that encounter and almost lost against Mamelodi despite the visitors being two men down. Wydad Casablanca were lucky to have remained in this competition and will have to be careful against the best-attacking side.

Over their last eleven meetings, Mamelodi Sundowns have recorded three victories, while Wydad Casablanca have won four games with four matches ending in a share of the spoils. After a fantastic game of football in Morocco, where Mamelodi Sundowns almost took all the points after being reduced to nine men, the Brazilians are now the favorite to advance to the next round for 1.57.

The Brazilians will be all out against the champions here, and we believe this is their best chance of making the final. The South African side are a very dangerous team and will expect them to win comfortably for 1.73.

Mamelodi Sundowns are the better side heading here; bet on a home win and over 1.5 goals for 2.10. Despite a toothless draw in the reverse leg, we expect a more exciting game with goals at both ends.

Good luck!
