The Urban Warriors go into the tie on the back of a morale boosting 2-0 win over Casric Stars, as the club continue to bid for automatic promotion to the PSL.

With the game set to take place on Friday, at the Athlone Stadium, Bartlett reiterated the need  to convert goal scoring opportunities.

“After our last game, against the then leaders Casric Stars, having a 2-0 victory at home put us in a very good position,” Bartlett said.

“Now, another long game coming up against Platinum City Rovers. Out of the last four games, three of the teams are fighting for their lives, literally, to stay in the Motsepe Foundation Championship.

“We are expecting a tough game but also, we know that if we do the right things, we are well capable of creating many opportunities.

“It’s just a matter of converting those opportunities so, what we’ve been focusing on the last couple of weeks, playing practice matches and training itself.

 ‘It’s for our players to stay a little bit more calm and composed in that final third.”
