RB Leipzig ace Kevin Kampl spoke to reporters ahead of his side’s Europa League clash with Celtic at Parkhead tomorrow night, and described the atmosphere at the Hoops’ famous stadium as ‘beautiful’, as quoted by the Daily Mail.

The Bundesliga outfit were too good for Celtic when the two sides met two weeks ago, but they should be in for a far tougher examination this time around in Glasgow’s East-End.

Brendan Rodgers’ side have really started to find their best form in recent weeks, winning three consecutive games in all competitions, and scoring 13 goals in the process.

Kampl spoke to reporters about the challenge that his side will face against Celtic tomorrow night, highlighting the ‘beautiful’ atmosphere as Celtic Park as something that his side need to be wary of, as quoted by the Daily Mail:

“If we play like we did in the first game we can win at Celtic. We are going there in a very confident frame of mind. I played there a few years ago with Salzburg and it was amazing.. It was a beautiful atmosphere but I think we can win there.”

The Hoops will have to be on their best best form, if they are to beat Leipzig, and keep alive their dreams of qualifying for the knock-out stages of the competition in the process.
