The Chilli Boys were unfortunate to concede a 51st minute penalty in their 1-0 loss to Royal AM after an improved second half performance last time out.

That defeat was Hunt’s first of the season after opening their DStv Premiership campaign with a 1-0 win against Sekhukhune United and a goalless draw with Mamelodi Sundowns.

Speaking ahead of the weekend’s clash, Gavin Hunt explained his side will ‘get up and go again’.

Gavin Hunt said in the Sowetan: “Every game gives you different scenarios and we will try and do the same again. The mentality is the most important thing we have to work on.

“We didn’t play too well, especially in the first half. But in the second half we were very good. I thought the penalty decision was harsh. It was not a penalty.

“But that’s football for you. We’ve got to pick ourselves up. I thought we deserved a point there but right now we just have to get started again and go,” Gavin Hunt concluded.

Kick-off at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium is at 15:00.
