The in-form midfielder was on target against St Mirren and Ross County when called upon for Celtic.
The Celtic star and his his team-mates face the La Liga giants needing a positive result to keep alive slim hopes of progressing from Group E. Turnbull has yet to feature in any of the three group games after five outings last term but would love an opportunity in the Spanish capital. He has grabbed the initiative in the absence of injured Reo Hatate and hit goals in each of Celtic’s wins over St Mirren and Ross County in the past week.
“It’s a huge game. It’s a great game to go into, away in Madrid. We are looking forward to it. We really need to get the result. Hopefully we can do that.” Brendan Rodgers’ team earned a 2-2 draw at home to gain their first point of the section but face an even stiffer test in the Civitas Metropolitano.
