Martin O'Neill's side currently sit fourth after back-to-back wins against Everton and Bolton.

Villa have scored seven goals in those two matches, coming from behind to beat Bolton Wanderers 4-2 at the weekend, and Laursen believes their free scoring means has bred a match-winning confidence in his side.

"We went behind against Bolton and while we don't ever want to go behind in a game, it didn't worry us," he said.

"We have total confidence in our ability to come back in matches. We have done that a lot of times. That is one of the strengths of the team. We have no concerns when we concede a goal. We never give up and we fight until the very end.

"We conceded two against Bolton and two against Everton but we scored seven goals in those games which is brilliant. That is vital. If you don't score goals, you don't win games."
