Alex Whittle says that Yeovil can travel to Altrincham on Saturday with confidence, as they look to pick up a third win on the bounce.
The Robins are sitting just three points off the play-offs but haven’t won any of their last seven league games.
Speaking to the BBC’s Jack Killah, the Whittle said: “They play good football, but as you said they’ve hit a little rocky patch. I think we can go there with confidence.
“They have to win the game as they’re going for play-offs, I think we can go there and try and enjoy ourselves.”
The full-back has been stand-in skipper for Yeovil’s last two games, wearing the armband in the 3-0 win away at Solihull and the 1-0 win over AFC Fylde at Huish Park.
“I’ve been captain a couple of times at clubs but I’ve never been ‘the captain’ and obviously I’m just filling in at the moment because obviously Jake Wannell (is injured). It’s a nice feeling to have but obviously I just go out there and just do my job.

“I’m probably a bit more like a joker really but I try and lighten up a bit with the lads, have a little bit of a joke and take the nerves off them a little bit. But obviously once we get on the pitch, it’s serious.
“Obviously it was two big wins for us and I thought we were solid in both games from front to back so we’re delighted with that, with the six points and obviously two clean sheets.”
Those victories have taken the Glovers to just eight points from the top seven, helping them surpass the famed 50-point mark.
“From last season, to get promoted and cruise it, let’s be honest, and then this season to be on 50 points now and seven or eight points off play-offs, I think it’s been a decent season all round.

“Eight points is still a lot of points to get into the play-offs, but everyone’s beating everyone so we’ll take it game by game. Obviously if we win Saturday and other teams lose then you never know but the main thing is to obviously get the three points.”
The 32-year-old was also asked about the latest off-pitch news, which saw Martin Hellier stand down as chairman to be replaced by Stuart Robins.
“It’s only just come out at the moment, literally a couple of days ago but obviously we can only concentrate on our football.
“We don’t get told too much and the main thing for us is getting three points on a Saturday and we’ve done that the last few games.”
