CELTIC continue their Champions League campaign against reigning Europa League champions Atalanta.

The Scottish champions travel to Bergamo following a 2-2 draw with Aberdeen at home at the weekend.

Brendan Rogers and his side will be keen to get rid of the bitter taste of their 7-2 away defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the last matchday.

Greg Taylor remains out for the visitors from Glasgow but Alex Valle will continue to fill in the role as he did at the weekend.

Centre-back Cameron Carter-Vickers remains a doubt despite his return to training and will not make the trip to Italy.
