It’s been blow after blow in the league – Hunt

“We have had one day’s training. Obviously, the game against Leopards is a big one for us. It’s another game right around the corner from the last one, so we will travel up there today and try to prepare for tomorrow.” – Kaizer Chiefs head coach Gavin Hunt said ahead of this afternoon’s DStv Premiership clash.

“Well, it’s part and parcel of what’s been happening this season, which is good. But we now have to get our league form right. We have to push to finish strong. Things haven’t gone our way up to now in terms of the league.

“We have had endless problems for every game. Players have not all been available right from the start of the season. That is what it is, we just have to take this game in front of us on Wednesday. We are going to have a lot of players out on Wednesday due to suspension and injury, so we will have to work with those Kaizer Chiefs players who are available,”
