Cameron Carter-Vickers could make a surprise return for Celtic at home to Lazio in the Champions League on Wednesday.The defender has had "a real good week of training", explained Brendan Rodgers.
Lazio have picked up just seven points from their opening seven league matches, while they opened their Group E campaign with a home draw against Atletico Madrid."They still have players that can make a difference. There's Ciro Immobile, you see his level over the years and how he leads the line. Luis Alberto I signed as a player when he was 20, so I know his technical qualities. Felipe Anderson, we saw at West Ham that he's a talented player.
"The game has changed financially in the last decade which makes it very hard for teams like ourselves but it doesn't mean we go into these games with any fear. We'll play with no fear and see where that bravery can take us."Gustav Lagerbielke and Odin Holm are suspended following red cards in Celtic's opening loss away to Feyenoord.
"It's the motivation for the guys here to try to do something on the European stage. It's a brilliant test for a relatively young group."Celtic have won both of their previous meetings with Lazio, winning 2-1 both home and away in the 2019-20 Europa League group stages. Celtic are winless in their past 10 Champions League home games , failing to keep a clean sheet in any of their last 15 at Celtic Park. Only four teams have had a longer run without a home win in the competition - FCSB , Lille , Club Brugge and Spartak Moscow
No side had fewer touches in the opposition box on MD1 of the Champions League this season than Celtic , amassing an xG of just 0.30, the third-lowest of any side ahead of only Union Berlin and Newcastle .
