The Burundi title holder will be desperate to make their mark in their first season in the competition after topping Flambeau du Centre with just a point. This is their second appearance in the intercontinental tournament after being knocked out by Diables Noirs in the CAF Confederation Cup.
Bumamuru head to this round after eliminating Centre Sportif de Bendje in a two-legged match. Bumamuru scored six while their opponent responded twice.
Mamelodi Sundowns (South Africa)
The Brazilians are one of the best teams in Africa; they’ve won the CAF Champions League once and have made it out of the group stage in five consecutive seasons. Mamelodi Sundowns were eliminated by Wydad Casablanca in the semi-finals last season. The Brazilians have started the season unbeaten and have only conceded twice.
Mamelodi Sundowns are without their main striker, Peter Shalulile, who has been injured for a couple of weeks.
Expert Betting Tips
The Burundi title holders head into this competition for the first time, and I must say they are very unlucky to have been matched with Mamelodi Sundowns. Bumamuru, who failed to impress or even make the group stage in last year’s CAF Confederation Cup, will host the Manchester City of Africa tomorrow. Mamelodi Sundowns are currently without a prolific striker, but they know how to get things done. Mamelodi Sundowns are very good at scoring before the break; bet on an away halftime win for 1.75.
We expect to see Mamelodi Sundowns win and score more than once for 1.65.
We expect them to be stronger here and get all the points; bet on a correct score of (0-2) for 4.33.
Good luck!
