Miguel Cardoso has only been at Mamelodi Sundowns for three months, yet he will get on with game number 20 in charge on Tuesday.
AmaZulu FC will be the visitors to the capital city for that occasion, which comes after the champions had their Nedbank Cup match against Sekhukhune United postponed over the weekend.

Cardoso's 13 weeks schedule at Sundowns has come with trips to Cape Town, Durban (thrice), Casablanca, Kinshasa, Polokwane (twice), Mbombela, and Bloemfontein, but in all that he has won 15, drawn two and lost two.
"The impact of fatigue on players can happen in a different way," he says about the subject of heavy legs.
"Not all players have the same pattern of physical activity during the matches.
"The ones that suffer most are the ones that usually do very explosive actions because of the capacity to repeat high intensity.
"So, it is normal that their game depends on that capacity, so they feel more affected eventually.
"Fatigue is felt more in the third or fourth match in a row, but it is also to do with how used you are to that kind of work.
"Obviously, it helps us a bit because we work with players that have been doing it already," says Cardoso.
The Portuguese has had the benefit of depth in keeping his players mentally fresh for the heavy schedule, yet he also attributes how they have managed to move to another element.
"Football performance is not only about having 11 players on the field when you play or a group of players thinking about the same things at the same time under a good physical condition.

"It is about uniting hearts, uniting souls, and making brotherhood.
"The most important thing to deal with the schedule is to be united and be strong and be able to give your soul for the other one," says Cardoso.
