Jim Goodwin claims that his Aberdeen squad are exempt from the 'defeatist and negative' attitudes that other Scottish Premiership teams apply when travelling to face the Old Firm.
The Dons currently sit third in the Scottish Premiership table having won three of their last five in the top-flight, and can close the gap between them and Rangers to just four points if they can walk away from Ibrox with all three points. It is a tough task despite the Light Blues' poor form, but an attainable result nonetheless given the discontent in Govan at present.
But despite failing to beat Rangers and Celtic away in the league since 2018, Goodwin insists that his players are not fazed by the challenge that awaits them - unlike other clubs in the division, who he claims go into clashes against the top two in the division with a 'defeatist' mentality that more often than not sees them unable to claim a scalp at the runaway league leaders.
