As RB Leipzig prepare to take on Celtic in Glasgow this evening (Tuesday), the visitors' Christoph Baumgartner was inspired by his surroundings on the Celtic Park pitch ahead of kick-off.

Speaking to RB Leipzig's club media team, the attacking midfielder praised the history tied to Parkhead and said that while he hasn't played on the pitch as yet, some of his team-mates have and well-understand the atmosphere the home crowd is capable of generating.

"I've not been here before, but I'm really looking forward to it," said the 25-year-old. "I think it's one of those stadiums in Europe that you dream of one day playing in as a kid because it just has the history behind it.

"You always hear about the incredible atmosphere here, and I'm really looking forward to it. But, at the end of the day, it's a football game like any other, and our aim is to win, which is the most important thing".

As it stands, Celtic command 20th place in the Champions League league-phase table with one win, one draw and one loss.

Leipzig, on the other hand, have suffered three defeats so far, so travel to Glasgow in search of their first three points.

Baumgartner added: "[We feel] it's our turn now. I don't think we've played poorly in the Champions League, or at least, there were periods where we weren't bad. And now we just need to reward ourselves."
