O'Neil said: "We're in a good moment. The players are confident and we're looking forward to the game."

The match is expected to be a close encounter, with both teams in good form.

Villa will be looking to continue their winning run and move into the top half of the table.

Bournemouth will be looking to maintain their fine form and climb further up the table.
