"We've Got to Believe We Can Beat Sundowns - Barker"


*Stellenbosch FC Coach Steve Barker Confident Against Mamelodi Sundowns*

Stellenbosch FC coach Steve Barker believes his team can overcome Mamelodi Sundowns when the two sides meet on Sunday. The match could have significant implications for both the Betway Premiership title and CAF Confederation Cup qualification.

Sundowns, on the brink of securing the 2024-25 Premiership trophy, will host Stellies at Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium. Barker's side, meanwhile, are within reach of a third-place finish, which would secure continental football next season.

"Playing Sundowns is never easy," Barker acknowledged. "They have quality all around the pitch, but we've had recent success against them. We need to plan, prepare well, and believe we can get a result."

Barker dismissed concerns about fatigue, despite Stellies' busy schedule. "We've learned to deal with playing often," he said. "When you face a team like Sundowns, there's always energy in the legs and commitment from players to give their best."

The match kicks off at 15h00 on Sunday, May 11, 2025, at Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium in Pretoria.
