Christian Fuchs says Newport County must focus on themselves as they look to avoid relegation from League Two on the final day of the season.
The Exiles, who have been in the Football league since 2013, head to bottom side Barrow on Saturday, 2 May (15:00 BST) as one of five sides who could finish in the bottom two.
Following a 3-0 loss away at Cambridge last weekend, the hosts will be hoping for a miracle, they need to win and overturn an eight goal difference if they are to keep their League Two status.
Despite Barrow's precarious position, Fuchs says his side must not focus on their opposition.
"I think they will try to push hard initially, but it's all assumptions, we don't actually know what state of mind they are in right now," said Fuchs.
"It's definitely a tough situation for them, but we have to look at ourselves.
"Our destiny is in our own hands, so we need to make sure that we are on the right end of everything that is going to happen on Saturday.
"It's down to us and how we approach the game to make sure if there is a weird atmosphere, we make it even more weird."
Fuchs' side eased some of their own pressure with a dramatic 3-2 victory against 10 man Oldham in their penultimate game.
Bobby Kamwa missed an injury-time penalty, before scoring the decisive goal three minutes later in the 108th minute to delight the County faithful.
Despite the significance of the three points, Fuchs has called for calm from his players heading into Saturday.
"If you just take a step back, take a breath and just focus on the game plan and what you need to do. If you focus on that and just be calm and composed, things will be fine," added the former Austria international.

"Every single game is a pressure situation but it's also a privilege to be in that situation and this group has dealt with it really well this season."
The away side will be backed by a sold-out away end of 930 Exiles fans making the 270-mile trip to Cumbria.
Fuchs is full of praise for their backing.
"The support was incredible at Cheltenham as well and it just shows how dedicated our fans are, because that's a very long trip to Barrow," he said.
"It feels really good and I think the fans taking this trip, they deserve to walk away with three points."
