Diego Simeone's boys are in town for the first part of a double header as Brendan Rodgers seeks first points of group stage.
But Celtic must embrace the madness as Diego Simeone's men land in Glasgow looking to cement their position as leaders in Champions League Group E. Much has been made of the Spaniards' adeptness at the dark arts, but this a serious team Brendan Rodgers' side are facing. The old guard are still smarting from a brutal encounter back in 1974, but Atleti have quality to go with the cunning and represent the Hoops' toughest test.
However, the Premiership champions are a team in form and really starting to find their stride under Rodgers. Sunday's 4-1 win at Hearts was their best display of the season and they'll need to reach similar levels against top La Liga opposition. Celtic will need to develop a ruthlessness of their own, too. Lazio made them pay with the latest of sucker punches last time out, so chances can't continue to be passed up.When is the game? The game takes place on Wednesday, October 25.
