After being held to a dramatic draw by Lazio on the opening matchday, men had previously battled back to beat Feyenoord 3-2 in Madrid, the latter being only the third win in their last 13 Champions League group games.

While things have not run entirely smoothly in Europe, Los Colchoneros recently equalled a club record.

Buy stringing together 14 consecutive home victories in La Liga, and they have won seven of their last nine matches all told.

However, Morata’s late goal was not enough to stop them losing at Las Palmas on Friday night, which means Simeone’s side have taken maximum points.

From just two of their last six away games; but they return to home turf this week, with back-to-back fixtures against Celtic and Villarreal.

Now making their 11th Champions League group appearance in succession, after surprisingly finishing bottom of their section last year.

Atletico have never lost to Celtic in the past – posting four wins from seven previous meetings – so they will expect to keep that run going and inch closer to the last 16.
