Reading will need to overcome 'dogged and physically strong' Blackpool tonight if they are to extend their unbeaten run to 12 matches.
The Royals are on their best run since 2012 and moved up to sixth in League One following Saturday's 3-1 victory over Peterborough United.
Steve Bruce's Blackpool won 3-0 in Hunt's first home match in charge in December, while Bloomfield Road is a ground the Royals have not won a league match at since 2001.
But in order to extend the unbeaten run and keep up their play-off charge, the Tangerines will need to be beaten.
Sat five points behind Reading, Blackpool have lost just twice in 14 matches and beat Bolton Wanderers on the weekend.
"They’re a good side with strong players who can hurt you," Hunt said of Blackpool. "They have a very experienced manager- a good guy- and it will be a tough game away from home.
"They’re dogged and physically strong with good footballers and league winners that I have played with, which is funny. We have to go up there and put our best foot forward."
Reading have eight matches remaining, including at home to Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday and away at Shrewsbury Town next Tuesday as the hectic schedule heats up.
