The four-time league winner also stated that improvement was expected from Chiefs technical team after spending and signing new players, including the likes of Gaston Sirino and Njabulo Blom.
“Of course [they have improved], they’ve spent, obviously when you spend you have to improve,” Hunt told journalists.
“They bought well, bought the whole of new players in key positions, yes they’ve improved if you look at where they were last season, we know what we have to face.”
United faced Chiefs twice last season, winning one and losing the other one despite Amakhosi struggling that season. Today, will only be the second time these two sides will face each other in this competition in 10 years.
