Crewe manager Steve Holland is hopeful that his side can reproduce the form next Saturday against Hereford United that knocked Bristol City out of the Carling Cup. Crewe are close to the bottom of League One, having lost two of their first three games, but Holland thinks they deserve to be higher.
"This (last night's cup win) is the fun bit, a bonus, but we have already talked with the players about Saturday's game.
"I'm sick of being at the bottom end of the table and three points on Saturday would guarantee us a top half berth.
"And I've seen enough to suggest we are heading in the right direction."
The bookies currently favour Crewe to win at Edgar Street.
