West Brom should not underestimate Aston Villa this weekend warns James Morrison.
The Baggies travel to Villa Park on Saturday as the favourites to end their 25-year, 16-game wait to get one over on their Midlands rivals after winning their last two league matches.
In contrast, Villa sit just two points outside the relegation zone and will head into the match with a whole host of injury concerns and with the supporters having seemingly fallen out with manager Gerard Houllier.
However, despite Villa appearing to be in crisis at the moment, Morrison says West Brom cannot afford to underestimate their local rivals as he looks for the Baggies to end their Villa hoodoo.
"We're on a decent run and they haven't been at their best," Morrison told the Birmingham Mail.
"But they've got some decent players and we'll have to be wary of them.
"I also think form goes out of the window in a derby.
"They'll be looking to bounce back after defeats."Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
