Tottenham closed the gap on the Champions League top eight with a 3-0 win against Slavia Prague.
Thomas Frank said he wanted his side to build momentum following Saturday's 2-0 win against Brentford and they certainly did that as penalties from Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons - after a David Zima own goal - secured all three points to lift them into ninth.
denied Spurs the chance to move into the top eight, with Arne Slot's side now occupying the final spot in the automatic qualification places for the next phase.
Despite not cracking the top eight, the new-found confidence as a result of their upturn in form was clear from minute one.
Richarlison and Kudus both went close in the early stages - with the former denied from point-blank range in the first minute - before the breakthrough arrived when Cristian Romero's header from a corner cannoned off Zima to give them a deserved lead.
It was another fast start after the restart which led to the second goal of the evening. Pedro Porro was caught late inside the box by Youssoupha Sanyang, attempting to block the full-back's cross, with Kudus then stepping up with confidence to convert from the spot.
A perfect evening at the office - which also saw club legend Heung-Min Son presented to the crowd before kick-off in an emotional return for the former captain - was then rounded off by Simons winning and scoring his penalty to make it three on the evening.
Approaching the final two games of the league phase, Spurs are within touching distance of the top eight.
They currently sit one point behind Liverpool in eighth with games against Borussia Dortmund and Eintracht Frankfurt on the horizon to round off their league phase.
Although they will be forced to navigate the clash against Dortmund on January 20 without Micky van de Ven due to suspension, following his yellow card for a stray elbow in the first half.
"That was the minor negative," Frank said in his press conference after the game. "It is what it is."
For now, though, attention will quickly turn to Sunday's trip to the City Ground to face Nottingham Forest, live on Your Site, as Frank's side look to make it three wins from three.
Tottenham boss Thomas Frank:
"Always nice after a win. That's what the Champions League does.
"I'm happy. We got the job done. Nothing is easy but we have a lot of positives to take.
"Now we build on our form. Two clean sheets. A few bits offensively I want us to work on - we need to be sharper in the box - but I feel more positively about the team.
"We've had three very solid performances - against Newcastle, Brentford and now Slavia Prague.
"We have four days off for the first time in a long time. We will have a few days off now - for our physical and mental health - but then we need to train well on Friday and Saturday and be ready for our next game."
Tottenham midfielder Xavi Simons speaking to TNT Sports:
"Really happy to win another game at home. This is the way we have to continue.
"It's always a pleasure for me to play Champions League. I'm enjoying my dreams and I'm really happy here.
"Slavia played man-to-man - you had to look for your space and create your own chances.
"I wanted to take the first penalty, but Mo came, so I'm glad I got the second one!
"The weekend will be tough with Forest, but hopefully we can continue."
Your Site' Patrick Rowe:
It is amazing what a short run of positive results can do for a team. Less than two weeks after being booed off the pitch at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after the 2-1 loss to Fulham, Thomas Frank's side were given a standing ovation from the home crowd following the win against Slavia Prague.
A draw against Newcastle, beating Brentford and now the 3-0 win in Europe. It is a welcome burst of positivity and although the Spurs boss is well aware his team need to build on it, the signs are promising.
Spurs recorded an expected goals value of over 2xG for just the fourth time this season tonight, albeit largely down to two penalties. It does, however, follow the Brentford game, which was one of these four.
They are playing with more confidence and swagger going forward, allowing the talents of Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons to now thrive.
Heung-Min Son's return to north London added to the feel-good factor at the game. "This will always be my home, I will never forget you," he said while addressing the familiar crowd before kick-off.
He quite often had a smile on his face while wearing the shirt, and the fans in the stands were the same on Tuesday evening.
Frank and his side will now be tasked with maintaining that joy, with Nottingham Forest the next chance to build on this momentum.
