Daniel Mackay's second-half effort gave Inverness Caledonian Thistle a well-earned cushion at Gayfield

Inverness Caledonian Thistle recorded back-to-back Scottish Championship wins with a 4-1 victory against Arbroath.

Billy McKay scored his fourth goal of the week before Yasin Ben El-Mhanni opened his Arbroath account with a cool, slotted finish.

Jay Henderson restored the visitors' lead on the stroke of half-time, with Daniel Mackay and Lewis Nicolson securing the points after the break.

Billy Dodds' side are up to sixth while Dick Campbell's team remain in ninth.

Arbroath manager Dick Campbell: "I'm absolutely gutted and concerned how we can play like we did on Monday against Dundee and how we did today. The fighting spirit was there for everyone to see last week.

"It was Inverness' day but there was some poor, poor defending from our point of view."

Inverness Caledonian Thistle manager Billy Dodds: "We're enjoying the new year. I wasn't happy with our first-half performance - we were lucky to be 2-1 up at half-time - but the second half we ran out worthy winners.

"We deserve a bit of luck, a few boys will be coming back in the next few weeks and hopefully that will kick us on even more because the confidence is back."
