Sekhukhune have surprisingly been the best team in the Betway Premiership since the start of the season. They are unbeaten in eight games - following six wins and two draws - and are top of the log with 20 points.

Their sensational start has tipped them as one of the contenders for the league title—a feat that should surely inspire Tinkler and his troops to improve with every passing game.

“I think we have the will to win, and always want to find the will to win. said Tinkler, speaking after their 1-1 draw with Chippa United at Peter Mokaba Stadium on Wednesday. “That's irrespective of whether we are down (a man)—the players just want to win.”
