Stuart McCall has challenged his Motherwell players to maintain their standards when they return to Dundee for a second time in four days for Wednesday night's Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Dundee United.
The former Bradford boss watched his side secure their first win for two months when they took apart in-form Dundee with a 4-0 Scottish Cup win on Sunday.
McCall said: "When I came in we'd lost four and drawn one of the last five. We carried that quality on to the game on Sunday and now we have to carry it on to Tannadice."
He added: "To steady the ship at Hamilton, although it wasn't a great performance, to get a draw and a clean sheet gave us something to build on.
"The Dundee game was one of those where if you don't get an early goal, it could be a different game.
"We were fortunate to get an early goal, which settled us down and another in the second half.
"But I did say prior to the game that the quality they had shown in training was very, very high and the tempo of the players was good."
