Aston Villa goalkeeper Tom Heaton is up for a hostile derby with Wolves.
Villa are aiming to reach the Carabao Cup quarter finals when they host their local rivals on Wednesday.
"The lads have been talking about how hostile that will be. A local derby, under the lights, it'll be a great atmosphere," he said.
"It's a big game in midweek, one we're looking forward to and we want to go as far as we can in the cup.
"There is definitely some learning going on. It's been a rock-solid start.
"A good foundation. We've been unlucky not to come away with points in some games. Those fine margins are what we are learning as we go."
