TS Galaxy welcome Mamelodi Sundowns to the Mbombela Stadium in the Premier Soccer League on Tuesday. The hosts suffered a 3-0 defeat against Mamelodi in their last league meeting.
Both teams are set to honour a late fixture, which leaves them with two more games to conclude the season while other teams have one. TS are eying a CAF Confederation Cup qualification, which looks difficult to achieve.
They are fourth with 43 points, trailing third-placed Orlando Pirates by six points. The Bucs are almost assured of the continental spot, but TS will likely pull out all the stops. The hosts have won thrice and lost twice in their last five home games.

Mamelodi, meanwhile, face a dead rubber, as they have already clinched the 2023-24 Premier Soccer League title. The visitors have maintained a double-digit lead over second-placed Stellenbosch (72-50) and could look to cap their memorable season with relaxed muscles.
However, the Sundowns will be keen to continue their impressive record of 28 outings without conceding. They boast four wins in their last five away game, while Galaxy have won once, drawn thrice and lost once in their last five matches.
