Defeat for either could prove a massive blow to their bid for top honours, with the Brazilians showing no sign of stopping following their emphatic 5-2 win over Free State Stars this past weekend.
Both teams registered wins over the weekend with Chiefs working extra hard to beat Maritzburg United 3-2 and Wits upsetting KZN outfit Golden Arrows 1-0.
Trailing Sundowns by six points after 18 rounds of league fixtures, Hunt is still optimistic about his team’s chances of winning the title this season.
In head-to-head stats, Chiefs and Wits have met in 59 league matches since 1985.
The Amakhosi have 29 wins compared to 11 for the Clever Boys, while 19 matches have been drawn.
Wits have won just two of their 30 home matches against Chiefs, suffering 17 defeats in the process.
Since the record speaks volume Wits’ would have to double their efforts to improve that.
But since football is neither here nor there; anything can and will happen this evening!
For coach Steve Komphela pressure seems to have subsided a bit with wins lately but their hard to please fans still want the best of the Glamour Boys-the same spirit and desire to win- that was displayed last season under now SuperSport manager Stuart Baxter.
Kick-off 19:30.
