ES Tunis Form & Team News
Esperance have lost just two of their last 16 matches in all competitions. They lost the first leg to Sundowns but they’re very strong on home turf.
A run of nine wins in 10 matches was ended by a 2-1 loss at Bizertin. A 3-0 home win vs Etoile du Sahel and a 2-0 victory at Gabes followed.
They drew two matches going into last week’s first leg. A 1-0 defeat away to Mamelodi Sundowns saw just 20% possession and no shots on target as they parked the bus.
Coach Laurențiu Reghecampf remains without centre back Yassine Meriah due to a long-term knee injury. Defensive midfielder Roger Aholou is another injury.
Central midfielder Mohamed Mouhli misses out but South Africa right winger Elias Mokwana will start.
ES Tunis Predicted Lineup
Memmiche; Jelassi, Ben Hamida, Bouchniba, Ben Ali; Konate, Ogbelu; Mokwana, Jebali, Belaili; Kada.
Mamelodi Sundowns Form & Team News
Sundowns are in fine form with 13 wins in their last 16 matches. They ended a four-match winless run against Esperance with a first-leg victory.
After a 2-0 home win vs AmaZulu, they suffered a 2-1 loss at Orlando Pirates after conceding twice in the first five minutes. Their last domestic match was a 1-0 win vs Sekhukhune United in the Nedbank Cup quarter-finals.
Last week, Sundowns beat ES Tunis 1-0 in the first leg. A 54th-minute goal was enough as they had 80% possession but just nine shots on goal.
Coach Miguel Cardoso remains without injured duo Themba Zwane and Rivaldo Coetzee although the former is nearing a return.
Tashreeq Matthews is an injury doubt on the left wing. Divine Lunga may replace Aubrey Modiba at left back.
Mamelodi Sundowns Predicted Lineup
Williams; Mudau, Kekana, Suarez, Lunga; Adams, Mokoena, Allende; Ribeiro, Shalulile, Morena.
Verdict
I'm backing a draw in this one. A goalless stalemate represents excellent value.
