KWAZULU-NATAL amateur side Island FC are relishing the prospect of facing star-studded Mamelodi Sundowns in a Nedbank Cup last-32 clash at Ulundi Stadium on Sunday.

"You don't need any motivation when playing against a big club like Sundowns," said Island FC administrative manager Mfanafuthi Ndlovu.

"We know all their players and we are busy strategising on how to beat them."
