Sundowns can still smash 18-team PSL record, and in their form they should: Mamelodi Sundowns wrapping up the DStv Premiership title leaves the Caf Champions league and Nedbank Cup to play for and — also domestically — records left to try to break.
And there is one record still very much within the Brazilians’ reach that, if coach Rulani Mokwena’s team can level or break it, can really send a statement of the six-time champions’ dominance in 2022-23.
Barring a sudden loss of form that would come as a shock, given their winning form for months now, they seem almost certain to steam right through the 16-team record set by Pitso Mosimane's Sundowns in 2015-16. Downs need 12 points to level that mark or 13 to pass it. In the Premiership — where they have won 19, drawn two and lost two of their 23 matches — they are unbeaten in 17 games, one of which was a draw away to Stellenbosch FC two games ago that ended a league record run of 15 victories.
In the Champions League, having topped Group B, they also enter the gruelling business end in the knockout stage in the coming weeks, which should further distract from a Premiership campaign where the title is wrapped up.
