“If you don’t want us to lose” Why Rodgers must ruthlessly ditch 6/10 Celtic dud to unleash “aggressive” colossus tonight

Celtic will be back in action in the Champions League tonight as they head to Bergamo to face Atalanta in their third league match away from home. The Hoops are looking to recover from their previous away game in Europe, where they suffered a heavy 7-1 defeat to Borussia Dortmund in Germany.

After starting the Champions League with a convincing 5-1 win over Slovan at Parkhead, Celtic faced a tough outing against Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund. With a 5-1 lead by half-time, the Scottish champions are determined to put on a better performance as they take on Serie A side Atalanta tonight.

During their last home game against Aberdeen, Celtic were held to a 2-2 draw after letting their 2-0 lead slip. To avoid defensive vulnerabilities like those seen in the Aberdeen match, the Hoops will need to have a strong defensive line against Atalanta’s attacking threats including Mateo Retegui, Ademola Lookman, and Charles De Ketelaere.

Key players like Kyogo and Hatate, who were standout performers in the Aberdeen match, must maintain their form in the upcoming game. Kyogo’s contributions in the first half of the Aberdeen match, including a well-timed run and goal, were crucial to Celtic’s performance. Hatate’s goal and key passes showcased his skills in both attack and defense.

To strengthen the defensive line, a change has been suggested in the center-back position. Maik Nawrocki could provide a solid option, especially with Auston Trusty’s struggles in recent games. Nawrocki, known for his aggressive style, can bring stability to Celtic’s defense and contribute to building play from the back.

With Nawrocki potentially making his first start of the season, Celtic will look to utilize his strengths on the right side of defense and improve their defensive solidity against Atalanta. His previous success in European competition for Legia Warsaw could give him the motivation to make a strong impact if selected for the game tonight.
