Inverness manager Richie Foran retains belief his side will finish in the top six - but he knows they need to start taking their chances.

Caley Thistle are bottom of the Premiership ahead of Saturday's Highland derby after being denied by the post and bar in a 2-1 home defeat by Motherwell on Wednesday night.

Inverness are without a win in nine matches but Foran is not panicking ahead of the short trip to face Ross County.

"We're sitting bottom and deserve to be, but we're playing quite well," he said. "We're the better team and dominating most games, but we're losing them. I'll take a poor performance and a 1-0 win.

"It's too early to talk about pressure. We win this game, we can jump two or three places and are a point behind them heading into the break. It's one we want to win badly. I still believe we'll finish in the top six but we need to turn these performances in front of goal.

"You can talk about luck but you have to go and make it. There's no excuses now - it's down to us all to get results and I believe we will."
