Ross County manager Jim McIntyre has warned his players to make sure that Dundee United do not follow their lead on Saturday.
Mixu Paatelainen has lost his first two games as United boss to leave them five points adrift at the foot of the Premiership ahead of Ross County's trip to Tannadice.
McIntyre took over at County last season in equally trying circumstances, with the Dingwall side five games into a seven-match losing streak in the league, before guiding them to safety and a ninth-place finish.
United are in a similar position that we found ourselves in last season when we took over,'' McIntyre said.We know we will face a team determined to get that first victory under a new manager.
They will definitely win a game at some stage and improve their form. They have good players so that will definitely happen. What we have got to guard against is making sure it's not against us.
When you're not winning the confidence can be low, but we saw with ourselves last season that a positive result can flip things round. They have got good players and confidence can return quickly and they can play with a spring in their step.''
