Atletico Madrid are set to visit Celtic Park in midweek in the UEFA Champions League
Alvaro Morata admitted that he wants at least a brace when Atletico Madrid take to Celtic next week - to spell more anguish for Scots after his goal in Seville earlier this month.
He's having a superb season by all accounts; seven goals in seven games at club level sees him joint-third in the La Liga top goalscorer rankings behind only Antoine Griezmann and Jude Bellingham. And he's after more in the east end - though he's admitted it will be tough at a 'difficult' Parkhead, adding that the Hoops' Asian contingent can be the ones to drag them through against Diego Simeone's side.
“Celtic, with their stadium, are always difficult opponents. We respect them as rivals and while it will be a hard match, it may not be beautiful.
