Everton boss Roberto Martinez believes his side face a difficult FA Cup test when they welcome Swansea City to Goodison Park on Sunday.
The all-Premier League Fifth Round clash pits Martinez against his former club and he knows that his side must be prepared for a revitalised Swans.
The Welsh outfit have recently undergone change, with Garry Monk taking over as manager and leading them to a win and a draw in his first two games.

And with a place in The FA Cup quarter-finals up for grabs Martinez says his team will need to adopt a professional approach.
"Swansea are probably in the best moment of their season due to the circumstances and their last two games [against Cardiff and Stoke],” Martinez told Everton's website.
"The new manager has galvanised the players.
"But in football and in this tournament you need to be able to adapt and cope with different environments. We are not going to take this game lightly."
He added. "When you are in a Cup draw the only thing you can hope for is to be playing at home but that doesn’t mean anything if you don’t approach it in the right manner.
“In The FA Cup Fifth Round, no matter who you face, you are going to have real difficulty in getting through.
"But so far we have been professional in all our performances in The FA Cup this season."

Everton have lost just twice this year and as well as aiming for a place in the last eight of The Cup, they are also in the hunt for a top-four finish in the Premier League.
And Martinez has been impressed by the team spirit his Toffees have been showing.
"Our squad is stronger now than it was three weeks ago because of the experiences we have had to go through.
"The group is phenomenal and they share something special which excites me for the final third of the season."
