Rangers are yet to beat Celtic this season and Lennon reckons that could play a part at Ibrox in crunch title clash this weekend.
Neil Lennon has questioned whether Rangers can clear the 'psychological hurdle' of beating Celtic after two defeats this season.
A win for the hosts would give them the chance to go five clear by beating Dundee next Wednesday. But Lennon reckons the two derby losses already on their record could have an affect this weekend and he can't see his former club leaving Ibrox empty handed. "In terms of Rangers, there's still that question mark over whether they can get over that psychological hurdle of beating Celtic," he said. "The two games already, Celtic have won both of them and comfortably.
"Celtic are 14 points down on last season so there's definitely been a drop off in consistency from their point of view. But in terms of the big games, they've handled them pretty well. Lennon recognises the improvement in Rangers under Philippe Clement. BUt his record in the biggest games is cause for concern according to the ex-Parkhead boss.
