Celtic have lost their first two games in the Champions League and need something from Atletico to breathe fire into their European hopes.
Paul Lambert reckons there is a European noose around Brendan Rodgers' neck - and wants to see him remove it by shocking Atletico Madrid.
It also extended Rodgers' unwanted record of having failed to win a home game in the Champions League group stages in either of his spells at Celtic...not the best omen with Atletico coming to town on Wednesday night as red hot favourites. And Lambert feels it's a 'noose' he must get off his neck soon to ease the niggling concerns among Parkhead fans.
"Against Lazio, Celtic were miles better. It's just about getting that noose off your neck. People will say 'we've not won another game, and another game at home.'
