Wasps' Anglo-Welsh Cup campaign has already reached a critical stage after only one game says backs coach Lee Blackett.
Their 17-13 defeat at Sale in their opening pool match leaves Wasps only three more games to try and win the group and qualify for the semi-finals.
Ahead of Saturday's visit to the Ricoh Arena of Worcester Warriors, Blackett knows they cannot afford another loss.
"If we want to progress there has to be a massive focus on this game and I think we're going to probably have to go out there and win.
"Worcester have got a big squad and they had a good win in their first game against against a more or less Bristol first team. We've got a proud record at home this calendar year and we want to keep it," he told BBC Coventry and Warwickshire.
