Unai Emery has declared Villa prepared for every possibility - including penalties - as they look to secure their place in the Champions League quarter-finals.
Emery has warned the tie is far from over and revealed his team are ready for extra time and penalties if required.
Asked about his approach to the match, with his team holding a two-goal lead, Emery replied: “Nothing changes. We are respecting them a lot.
“We have our own experiences, myself or the players as well in their career. Anything could happen tomorrow.
“Why? Because it's a football match and in 90 minutes a lot of things can happen.
“The match can change so quick. We won there, but we won in the last minute in two actions we had. It's football.
“The respect of them (Brugge) is massive. The result is for us to follow the same game plan we had there.
“We are going to play tomorrow 90 minutes. The second 90 minutes, the second leg. We are ready for 90 minutes to compete. We are ready in case it's extra time. And we are ready in case we will need a penalty shoot.
Emery continued: “The challenge is to achieve something as a club, something for the supporters, something for the history and something as well as a professional - players, the coaches, myself.
“But to achieve it is facing the challenge tomorrow thinking everything can happen.”
Villa have been boosted by the return to fitness of Emi Martinez and Marco Asensio.
