It's a big night in Glasgow's east end tonight as Brendan Rodgers and his troops take to the Champions League stage
Brendan Rodgers ' men will take to the Champions League stage tonight as they bid to get off to the perfect start in front of a sell-out crowd at Parkhead. The atmosphere in Glasgow's east end has been praised far and wide over the years from players past and present and the Hoops boss will be hoping his players can feed off that. Many have named this fixture as the ideal beginning in a bid to reach the knockout rounds.
"I think that will be the case in all games in the group. They will not be in the position as favourites. I think they will have that ambition to get points today and I think they should - from the point of playing style - should play their typical game which is a counter-attacking style. I don't really think they will park the bus, they are not like that. But i think they will be a little defensive minded. The coach is pragmatic in those kind of games.
