Mental preparation

Hi, how to prepare myself mentally for the tournament before the tournament. Sometimes when i play some matches, I before playing the matches get nervous and lose against a player whom I can defeat easily but I don't want this in my upcoming tournament. What to do? How to stop my nervousness.
