Celtic Seeks First Away Champions League Win Since 2017

Brendan Rodgers is optimistic that Celtic can end a seven-year away win drought in the Champions League as they prepare to face Dinamo Zagreb. The Hoops last achieved this feat in 2017 against Anderlecht and have since struggled to secure victories on the road in the tournament. With eight points accumulated from five games this season, Rodgers believes his team is well-prepared and confident in their abilities. He emphasized the importance of an away win for both the team's progression and the supporters' morale, stating it represents a significant challenge but one that could yield rewarding results. Additionally, a victory would secure Celtic's place in the play-off round, which adds to the match's significance. The team aims to harness their defensive strength shown in their last match against Atalanta to complement their attacking capabilities in Zagreb.
