Nigel Pearson has urged his Leicester City side to rediscover their formula for success when they take on league leaders Burnley at the King Power Stadium today (12.15).
Pearson admits some of his players have lost form, but said the only way to get through such a spell was by rediscovering their prolific work-rate, especially against a side that is as committed as Sean Dyche's Burnley.
"The important thing is and, I think the players recognise this, they have to look at what has got us success in games so far," said Pearson.
"If we all reflect on the last couple of games, we probably haven't done that often enough.
"Some of the goals we have conceded have been pretty cheap. We have had unforced errors, which is out of character but it happens. Players aren't always in form. A loss of form from time to time is something some players can play through, but others can't.
"We can't afford collectively to be under par, and we have been in the last two games.
"I think the players recognise that. We all want to achieve success and to do that you have to work hard.
"We are playing against a side who have an exceptionally hard work-rate."
City will be waiting on whether Wes Morgan recovers from illness, but Chris Wood (hamstring) is definitely out.
However, right-back Ritchie De Laet should return after a shin injury.
