Leicester City must pull together to eradicate the costly errors which have cost them dearly, captain Wes Morgan has urged.
Nigel Pearson's men have suffered back-to-back defeats in the past week for the first time this season.
Morgan admits City have been punished for their lapses in concentration.
City must arrest their dip in form which has seen then leapfrogged at the top of the table by Burnley and QPR, who are their next two opponents before Christmas.
However, Morgan is confident City can do so. He said: "We need to pull together now because it is only us who can go out on to the pitch and turn it around.
"We have to look at the form we have been in throughout the season so far and not get too down about these two results. We know we are good enough to bounce back and get on track.
"Burnley are in and around us, and if we can take three points off them it will do our league position well.
"We will bounce back. We will work hard all week and look to get back to winning ways. It will be a big game."
Centre-back Morgan admitted City need to improve defensively after conceding five goals in the last two games, at Sheffield Wednesday and Brighton.
"We have been conceding soft goals lately," he said.
"The two at Sheffield Wednesday, they were two good finishes, but at Brighton we have given the ball away cheaply, they counter-attacked and they punished us.
"They are goals we probably should do better against, but I don't think teams are breaking us down and punishing us. We can take heart from that.
"At the same time, we are conceding goals and we need to tighten up.
"Looking back at Saturday, they didn't create too many chances. It was just the two goals which came from our own errors and we got punished.
"Sometimes you can make those errors four or five times and not get punished.
"That is a spell we are going through at the moment but we have to draw a line through it and bounce back."
Torquay United have extended the loan of City youngster Jak McCourt for another month.
The 18-year-old has made seven appearances so far during a youth loan agreement that started just over two months ago.
