PSL Title Race Heats Up

While Mamelodi Sundowns seem poised to clinch their seventh consecutive DStv Premiership title, the battle for the Nedbank Cup remains wide open.

SuperSport United is gearing up to face Stellenbosch FC in the quarter-finals of the Nedbank Cup, with hopes of advancing to the semi-finals.

Aiming for CAF Return

Hunt expresses SuperSport United’s determination to make a return to CAF competitions after their participation in the CAF Confederation Cup last season.

Despite facing tough competition for the coveted spots, Hunt remains optimistic about his team’s chances, emphasizing the importance of taking each game as it comes.

Trophy Drought and Past Success

SuperSport United has endured a trophy drought for the past five years, last winning silverware in 2019 under the guidance of former coach Kaitano Tembo.

Hunt himself last lifted a trophy during his tenure at Bidvest Wits in 2017. With their current standing in the DStv Premiership, SuperSport United aims to break this dry spell and add to their trophy cabinet.

Current Standings and Form

As the PSL season approaches its climax, SuperSport United finds themselves in third place on the log standings with 33 points.

With a record of nine wins, six draws, and five losses in 20 games, the team is gearing up for the challenges ahead as they pursue their CAF ambitions amidst a competitive league environment.
