Lakay wary of youthful Stellies!
“We know Stellies as a young team full of energy, lots of pace and even though they lost [Ashley] Du Preez to Kaizer Chiefs.” the Mamelodi Sundowns defender told the club’s website.
“Even without him they are still a threat with the youngsters in the team. If you look at their recent form in the league they’ve been on a high.
“Even though they’ve won two games and drawn two games if I’m not mistaken.
“People will obviously look at our previous two seasons against Stellies and if we have been watching those games they’ve been a tough opponent for us.
“Last season we drew the away leg, then they won the second leg here.
“We are looking forward to it and obviously we do our analysis like Mamelodi Sundowns do with any other team.
“We are trying to figure out their strong point and obviously try to rectify what we did wrong in our previous game because then we can correct it in this game.
“Obviously we want to go out there and win the game, like we do with every other game.”
