Confidence taken from Saturday’s 4-0 win against Hamilton at Tynecastle has helped morale after a five-match winless run. However, Cathro says his team would have coped with upcoming challenges regardless.

“It’s something we look forward to. We look forward to the games against opponents at the top of the league, which is where we want to be,” Cathro explained to the Evening News.
“These are positive things. We look forward to getting ready, training well and preparing well. We’ll be ready when the game comes.
“Irrespective of what happened on Saturday with our win against Hamilton, we’re more than ready to be competing with the teams we face in the next two fixtures. There’s no doubt about that, no insecurities.”
