Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies will look to continue their imperious run in the 2025 Hollywoodbets Super League when they travel to Pietermaritzburg for a showdown against Royal AM Ladies at the Harry Gwala Stadium. With 10 wins from 11 games, 34 goals scored, and not a single goal conceded, the Brazilians are setting the benchmark for excellence this season.
Reflecting on the season so far, midfielder Isabella Ludwig highlighted the confidence and focus within the group:
“The mood in the camp is positive and focused. We are proud of the way we have started the season. Going unbeaten thus far and keeping clean sheets shows the hard work we have put in, both defensively and as a team overall. But at the same time, we know that staying consistent is key. The coaching staff and players all have the same mindset: take it one game at a time, stay grounded, and keep pushing to maintain the high standards we have set.”
Ludwig also acknowledged the importance of respecting every opponent, regardless of their position on the log:
“We cannot afford to take any team lightly, regardless of where they are on the table. For us, it is about sticking to our game plan, staying disciplined, and showing the same hunger and intensity we have shown in every match so far. Every game is a chance to improve.”
Midfielder Khunjulwa Mali echoed the team’s high spirits while emphasizing their focus and determination to maintain their exceptional form:
“The mood in the camp is incredibly high right now. We are proud of our unbeaten run and the fact that we have yet to concede a goal. But more than that, there is a shared belief in our ability to keep raising the bar. We are not just playing to protect a record—we are playing to dominate, to stay sharp and to push each other to be better every week.”
Looking ahead to the clash against Royal AM Ladies, Mali reaffirmed the team’s commitment to both attacking flair and defensive discipline:
“We will keep doing what has brought us success—playing with intensity, executing our attacking strategies, and applying our defensive principles with full concentration. Our goal is not only to score but to control the game in every phase and make sure we remain difficult to break down.”
Last season, Banyana Ba Style dominated both fixtures against Royal AM. In the first meeting, they recorded a commanding 4–0 victory, with Boitumelo Rabale scoring twice, while Andisiwe Mgcoyi and Nthabiseng Majiya also found the back of the net. In the reverse fixture, Sundowns completed the double with a clinical 2–0 win, thanks to goals from Rabale and Majiya.
