Brendan Rodgers will celebrate a landmark moment in his career as Celtic face Kairat Almaty.
The Hoops manager is one of the most successful in Celtic’s history and really doesn’t know anything other than winning.
Across two spells, Rodgers has won multiple trophies and will be hoping to replicate that.
As well as securing a clean sweep domestically, the Northern Irishman wants to advance further in the Champions League, but will need to beat Kairat Almaty from Kazakhstan.
Winning is always important, but it will be extra special if he can do so against Kairat.

Brendan Rodgers celebrates 800th game in management
For the 800th time in his career, Rodgers will take to the touchline to lead his side out.
Throughout his managerial tenure, 279 of those have been with Celtic and in that period, has only lost 41 times and holds a 69.5 win percentage.
| Games in Charge | Wins | Draws | Losses | Win Percentage |
| 279 | 194 | 44 | 41 | 69.5 |
That success has seen the 52-year-old lift four Scottish Premiership titles, three Scottish Cups, and four League Cups.
An astonishing record for someone who still has plenty to offer as the Hoops boss.
What was Brendan Rodgers’ first game in charge as Celtic manager?
Rodgers first led Celtic out in a competitive fixture in the same competition as he leads them out on his 800th game tonight.
Celtic faced Lincoln Red Imps from Gibraltar in the Champions League’s Second Qualifying Round.
Unfortunately it would prove to be one of the most embarrassing defeats in recent history as the Hoops were beaten 1-0.
Thankfully the return leg was a 3-0 win and the rest, as they say, is history.
