Gavin Hunt confirms Dumisani Zuma return for SuperSport United match

Kaizer Chiefs coach Gavin Hunt has issued an update regarding his squad to face SuperSport United, whom he has also assessed ahead of the game.

Chiefs return to action this evening with a DStv Premiership fixture against SuperSport at Lucas Moripe Stadium in Atteridgeville set for 19h30.

It will be a return to familiar territory for Hunt, who won three of his four league titles in six seasons with Matsatsantsa, while also coming up against one of his former understudies in coach Kaitabo Tembo.

"SuperSport have their coach Kaitano Tembo, whom I brought up to be my assistant, so there will be history on that one," commented Hunt on Chiefs' website.

"Even after losing two of their key players – Clayton Daniels and Aubrey Modiba – they still have a consistent squad and they have been together for a long time.

"We must just avoid committing crucial mistakes. We are playing against a SuperSport United that has energetic youngsters in their team, they will be a difficult opponent.

"But it's the same with all the teams that we face in this league. This league is strange; with one win you jump several notches up the log. We just have to win our matches."

The 56-year-old further confirmed the return of winger Dumisani Zuma, who was ruled out for a second time through injure ahead of the last match against Black Leopards and has yet to feature this season.

"We will go into the match with the same squad that played against Black Leopards. Dumisani Zuma will return to the squad but we will see how it goes. We will perhaps bring him on during the match," he added.
