Roms boss Richard Evans is hoping for more of the same as his side prepare to take on Bromsgrove Rovers for the second time in a week.
Romulus beat Rovers in the GX Cup in midweek and will be welcoming the same set of players to Coles Lane tomorrow.
And despite going into the game carrying a number of injuries in his squad, Evans (above) is confident that Romulus can take all three points.
He said: "It would be great if we could make it two wins out of two against Bromsgrove this week.
"We beat them on Tuesday and looked good for the win so now I am looking for us to carry that on tomorrow and really give them a game.
"That is the great thing about my lads, they make sure that whoever we play, they know they have had a tough afternoon.
"That is the attitude that has got us so far in the leagues and what hopefully see us continue to grow.
"We may have injuries at the moment but the spirit we have and the squad we have now does mean that we can handle that."
Romulus will be missing Tyrone Fagan, Richard Evans, Leon Mitchell and Colin Tiernan for the visit of Bromsgrove, but nonetheless Evans is still confident.
He said: "Over 90 minutes we are now unbeaten in nine straight games so the lads andI are obviously confident at the moment.
"Only an extra time defeat in the FA Trophy has spoilt that but we are still happy still with what we have been doing.
"We have had to show during the time that we have a strong squad as with our injuries we have needed all of our players to do well – and they have done."
Evans also added that the weekend game would be a welcome return for him to league action.
He said: "We might not be doing that well in terms of position but if you look at it we have got a lot of games in hand.
"That is because of how well we were doing in the cups and to be honest that is what we wanted to happen.
"We wanted success in the cups early on to generate money and now that is done we want to push on in the league.
"We have seen nothing this year that should leave us afraid of what we face so now it just a case of catching up he teams above."
