Aston Villa forward Gabriel Agbonlahor has insisted that he is hopeful about his side bagging the full three points in their upcoming Premier League clash against West Bromwich Albion tomorrow.
The Villains, who have managed to defeat West Brom just once in their last seven attempts, are currently 11th in the Premier League with 19 points from 15 games, five points and five places ahead of the Baggies.
And Agbonlahor explained that his side are expecting a tough outing at the Hawthorns, a ground where they last won in 2008.
However the 28-year-old, who revealed Aston Villa will give their all for a win tomorrow, feels his side can grab second city derby bragging rights.
"West Brom are never taken lightly”, Agbonlahor told the club’s official site.

"West Brom have a lot of good players in their team and they are a good team.
“We will have to be on our game and hopefully with the great away support we will have in the game, we can go on and get the three points."
The last meeting between the sides resulted in a thrilling 4-3 win for Aston Villa at Villa Park in January.
