Andi Weimann says there's plenty of confidence inside the Aston Villa camp ahead of their clash with Manchester City.
City were shocked in last season's corresponding fixture.
Weimann told Villa's website: "We feel very confident having made the strong start that we have. Our mood is good, the belief is strong.
"There's a good feeling among the lads about what we're trying to do this season.
"It's a really good group to be a part of - there's a togetherness about us and we want to be successful together.
"The squad is strong, stronger than last season with a really good blend of youth and experience.
"All of the lads get on well on and off the pitch, which is important too."
