Tiernan Lynch insists there will be no overreaction at Larne.
The Invermen are going through something of a slump going by the high standards they have set this season having lost their last two games.
However, Lynch says the league leaders will remain calm, just as they have done all season, as they bid to get back on track at Glenavon this evening.

"The media talks about where we are in the league table more than we do," said the Larne boss
"I've never gone a season in the Irish League where you're not gonna have a blip or not going to lose games.
"It's just the competitive nature of this league.
"The players are just as disappointed as I am.
"Our big job now is to go and try and put this right.
"I think our fans deserve that; they were outstanding last Friday night, just like they have been all season, and we let them down.
"Credit to the players as I tell them day in and day out their desire and work ethic has been outstanding all season.
"We don't become a bad team overnight, you don't lose all that in one game.
"We have to lick our wounds and put it right."
Larne's two defeats came in quick succession as they went down 1-0 to Linfield last Tuesday night before their 2-0 loss to Coleraine three days later.
Lynch was concerned his side were "outworked" against the Bannsiders but he refused to blame the quick turnaround in games.
"The manner in which we lost that first half is what's sticking in all of our throats," he said.
"It's the first time in 14 games or whatever it might be that we've been outworked.
"I'm not gonna make excuses (playing Tuesday) and I'm not going to go looking for things.
"We didn't do enough on the night and that's the bottom line, because we didn't do enough, we got punished.
"We've conceded two really bad goals and we never really recovered from them.
"I'm disappointed in the goals we conceded because we've been so good all season.
"But our job now is to not cry about it, we have to go again."
Glenavon are also looking for a result after their defeat at Dungannon Swifts on Saturday.
Goalkeeper Rory Brown, who has penned a new five-year deal with the club, is eyeing a response at Mourneview Park tonight.
"It's going to be a very tough game after them losing last week," he said.
"Given how we performed against them earlier this season and how we've played against the other top teams I don't see why we can't go and give them a good game."
