Tokely looking for 'cute' Caley

Caley Thistle host Kilmarnock on Saturday knowing victory would take them four points clear of rock-bottom Falkirk, who do not play again until next weekend.[LNB]Tokely believes Inverness could learn a thing or two from the Bairns, who beat them last time out in the Homecoming Scottish Cup quarter-finals.[LNB]The Highlanders had Lionel Djebi-Zadi sent off for professional foul on Carl Finnigan and fellow defender Tokely said: "Falkirk were very streetwise.[LNB]"Big Lionel was unlucky in terms of getting on the wrong side of the attacker and when you look back at the pictures on television, he was being pulled himself.[LNB]"Possibly, we have to be a little cute ourselves and, if we get fouled, go down.[LNB]"Dougie Imrie's very honest in respect of he tries to stay on his feet too often when it is a foul and you just hope the referee makes the right decision."[LNB]He added: "We're very confident of staying in this league; we have to prove the cup defeat was a one-off and do that against Kilmarnock this weekend.[LNB]"The guys are looking forward to it and getting back to league business."[LNB]Inverness have lost their last two home games in the league and cup, although sandwiched between that was the shock result of the season, a 1-0 victory at Rangers.[LNB]Tokely, who turned 30 last weekend, said: "The defeat to Motherwell the other week was very disappointing but we bounced back in style with a win at Rangers.[LNB]"However, to lose another game at home was worrying. We're not getting off to the best of starts in games but there's no doubting the confidence is there; you don't go down to Ibrox and win and it disappears overnight.[LNB]"But we'll pick up ourselves up and get back to the league and take each game as it comes.[LNB]"We've been on a great run and now focused on dragging down the likes of Kilmarnock and St Mirren, who aren't that far away.[LNB]"A win this weekend would take us four points clear of Falkirk would set us up nicely for the trip to their place the week after.[LNB]"It's a must to catch St Mirren and Killie because we've go to play them both before the end of the season and if we take them back in and create a real scrap, there's a better chance of us surviving.[LNB]"Falkirk don't play this weekend so the onus is on us to win and heap the pressure on them in their game in hand."[LNB]Kilmarnock make their third trip of the season up the A9 and will be hoping for a different outcome to their previous two visits.[LNB]Caley came out on top in the September meeting and more recently disposed of Killie in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup.[LNB]A 2-1 victory at Rugby Park in November piled on the misery, but Tokely knows Jim Jefferies' men will be desperate to get their own back.[LNB]"Our games with Killie are normally exciting matches," he said.[LNB]"We've won all three encounters so far this season, so they'll be keen on revenge this weekend.[LNB]"They're a good side with the likes of Kevin Kyle, David Fernandez and Mehdi Taouil, who can be dangerous on their day.[LNB]"But we know what we have to do in order to get the three points."[LNB][LNB]
