Mamelodi Sundowns co-coach Manqoba Mngqithi has warned that Bloemfontein Celtic could cause problems for his charges.

The two sides are set to clash in the DStv Premiership at 17:00 today, and Mngqithi expects Phunya Sele Sele to provide the league leaders with a tough challenge at Lucas Moripe Stadium.

"It's a tricky affair, it's a tricky game," said Mngqithi, as quoted by KickOff.

"They are a hard-running team. They are the ones that took us out of the MTN8. We know the quality they present in attacking play and their structure is a little bit awkward.

"It's not going be an easy game. That team is good and they have not been doing exceptionally well and they are a little bit more dangerous when they are like that.

"You will want them to come with momentum but when they are struggling they are more dangerous against big teams and cause problems."

Celtic haven't won in their last five league appearances, drawing two and losing three.
