Fylde stepped up their fight against relegation from the National League by beating Hartlepool 2-1 to claim their second straight win.
Having moved off the foot of the table with Saturday's victory over Rochdale, Nick Haughton's early opener maintained the Coasters' recent momentum.
An own goal from Emmanuel Onariase - three minutes later - doubled Fylde's lead before home goalkeeper Theo Richardson denied Callum Cooke at full stretch.
The visitors, who also ended a long losing run on Saturday, hit back through Jake Hastie after 74 minutes and missed a golden chance to level two minutes later when Cooke's free-kick crashed back off the crossbar.
