Neil Lennon, a seasoned figure familiar with the intensity of Celtic-Rangers clashes, possesses invaluable insight into the upcoming match at Ibrox. With a notable track record both as a player and a manager, Lennon’s perspective carries weight. His anticipation of Sunday’s encounter, shared with Sky Sports, is bound to be of significant interest to fans, given the pivotal position of the match in the title race.
Lennon said: “Both of them have been pretty consistent. Celtic have sort of found their mojo again in the last few weeks. They’ve got players back fit.
“My own opinion is I can’t see Celtic losing it. It could be a draw or a Celtic win. Rangers will be up for it and the crowd will be up for it but Celtic have got the extra quality and more match-winners. If Callum McGregor is fit, that could be pivotal.
Avoiding defeat would certainly be a positive result from a Celtic perspective. Although Rangers would be able to go back to the top of the league by winning their game in hand, it would keep the Bhoys’ destiny in their own hands.
Brendan Rodgers and his team would then get the chance to bring Rangers to Celtic Park after the split and shoot for glory in front of 60,000 home supporters.
Celtic aren’t going to settle for a draw tomorrow, they aren’t wired like that. However, if Lennon’s prediction rings true and the Bhoys secure at least a point from rangers.
