Ahead of their tough fixture against third-placed Kaizer Chiefs at Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Wednesday, Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso says the team are at a stage where they cannot afford to drop any points as they look to clinch their ninth consecutive league title.
With three matches remaining, Masandawana are in pole position to reclaim their league crown as they are five points clear of their nearest rivals, Orlando Pirates, having played one game more.
Pirates are in action on Tuesday away to Stellenbosch, where they will look to win and reduce the gap to two points. However, a victory against Amakhosi on Wednesday would ensure the Brazilians keep the title destiny in their own hands.
