Ollie Watkins has called for consistency from Aston Villa as they go in search of a third straight Premier League win on Thursday night.
The Villans travel to Elland Road to play Leeds United on the back of two strong displays that produced maximum points against Brighton and Southampton.
Watkins says Villa must keep their good run going against a Leeds team who have lost five league games on the spin.
He said: “We’ve come out the other side of being where Leeds are and now we need to look up and find some consistency.
“It’s the perfect game to go into. We’ve got to keep trying to push on and get as many wins as possible."
Tactical tweaks from head coach Steven Gerrard have got his side firing again in the past two matches, with six goals scored and none conceded.
“I’m in a really good place. I feel much better after scoring a couple of goals. I want to keep scoring and creating goals and bringing the best version of myself to the team."

The upturn in form has coincided with Watkins and Danny Ings reuniting up front, and the former believes they are now reaping the rewards of working on their partnership.
“It takes time. We’ve been working together on the training pitch and trying to figure out ways to unlock defences and create chances,” Watkins said.
“I feel like it’s finally clicking now. I’m really excited to see what we can do from now until the end of the season.”
Watkins looked back to his best when he produced an exquisite turn and finish to open the scoring last time out, and the striker is feeling in fine form heading to Leeds.
He said: “I’m in a really good place. I feel much better after scoring a couple of goals.
“I want to keep scoring and creating goals and bringing the best version of myself to the team.
“It helps when you enjoy it, and I’m loving it at the moment.”
