Don Cowie says Ross County’s home record gives the players “real belief” as they look to deliver a strong response to the listless 3-0 defeat at Dundee United.
That loss before the international halted County’s three-game unbeaten run and left them in eighth place, four points above bottom club Hibs.
Motherwell are the visitors on Saturday to Dingwall, where the Staggies’ only defeats this season have come against top two Celtic and Aberdeen.
“Our performance levels at home have been really strong, there’s a real belief here among the group,” said manager Cowie.
“There’s real evidence for the group to look back on, it gives them confidence when they play here, they look back at what they’ve achieved and the results that they’ve had and that grows.
“I say it all the time, consistency is key. We had three games prior to Dundee United where we were really consistent, really solid, picked up five points in three games.
“Then we let ourselves down by losing 3-0 away to Dundee United, but one thing about this group is they’ve responded really well when they’ve faced adversity after a poor result and this is an opportunity to do that again.”
Cowie is braced for a difficult task against former County boss Stuart Kettlewell’s Motherwell, who occupy fifth place and are seeking a third straight away win.
“We’re playing against a really good team, who’ve had a fantastic season so far,” he added.
“They got to the League Cup semi-final, they’re sitting in the top half of the table for a reason. They’ve been really consistent and we’re expecting a really tough challenge.”
