Mamelodi Sundowns will look for two wins in a row when they meet unpredictable Chippa United at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium on Wednesday.

Chippa opened their season with a dour 0-0 draw at home to newly-promoted Stellenbosch on 3 August. The Chilli Boys dominated the league contest and had chances, but were unable to finish.

Coach Clinton Larsen said: "I am disappointed we didn't take the chances that we created, but I am happy that we are creating chances.

"We want to be competitive, we don't want to be walkovers in this league and the boys proved that [against Stellenbosch]."

Meanwhile, Sundowns, began the defence of their crown with a 2-0 home victory over Tshwane derby rivals SuperSport United. The Brazilians claimed the three points after goals from Sibusiso Vilakazi and Themba Zwane.

This past weekend they were in action in the CAF Champions League, losing 2-1 to Republic of Congo side Otoho d'Oyo away from home in a preliminary round first-leg match.

Coach Pitso Mosimane said: "There is pressure from the fans and from the board to win the Champions League again. There is pressure to win the 'la decima' [10th PSL era league title]."

Kickoff is 19:30 in Port Elizabeth.
