Aston Villa boss Emery confident hosting Wolves

Aston Villa boss Unai Emery says they're in good shape for Saturday's derby against Wolves.

Emery is confident facing Wolves.

He said: “We played against Newcastle and they showed us their potential; we played against Chelsea and they showed us their potential; we played against Manchester United and they showed us their potential, and we played against Tottenham and it was the same.

“We have to learn and try to get better analysing those matches against those teams. We accepted those results against those teams, but my idea is to try to increase our level when we are playing against teams like that.

“Tomorrow Wolverhampton is going to be very difficult. We want to get our best performances at home in Villa Park with our supporters. We want to play with personality and impose and dominate with our positioning on the pitch.

“Sometimes we are getting it, sometimes not. Tomorrow is a big challenge about how we can play at home being comfortable, being strong. We have to try to play with personality in our structure, dominating the match."
