FC Platinum coach Norman Mapeza has admitted that their game against Harare City on Friday will be difficult for them.

The Zvishavane side will travel to Harare after they picked two crucial wins last week which put them on top of the log with 59 points. Their opponents are sitting on 13th position, three points above relegation zone.

Mapeza said the tie will not be any easy considering the Sunshine Boys are fighting to survive relegation.

“It’s not going to be an easy game for us. The fact that they are not yet clear out of the relegation zone will make them fight for three points. They need those points to survive relegation,” said Mapeza.

“We are also pushing for maximum points because we are fighting for championship. I think it will be an interesting game.”

FC Platinum are just one point above second placed Dynamos. They have an eight league match unbeaten run. They won six of those matches while they drew two games in match day 26 and 27.
