The first 45 minutes of Celtic's pulsating 2-2 draw with Atletico Madrid 13 days ago left a telling impact on the watching world.

Brendan Rodgers' side were eventually pegged back but epic strikes from Kyogo and Luis Palma had Parkhead rocking and punters believing.

Now a performance of a lifetime is needed to sink Diego Simeone's A-listers on home turf and breathe new life into a Champions League campaign which has been heavy on plaudits but scant on points.

A draw between Lazio and Feyenoord coupled with a Celtic win would be just the tonic to keep Group E poised with two matchdays remaining as Rodgers aims to mastermind a historic European night.
