Neil Lennon says a battle between Callum McGregor and John Lundstram could define Monday's Celtic and Rangers match.
The former Hoops boss reckons it's do or die time for new Light Blues boss Michael Beale, despite a four-game winning run at the start of his reign. Ange Postecoglou's Celtic team are nine points clear at the top and Lennon thinks they will be champions again should they emerge victorious on January second at Ibrox.
A battle in the engine room will prove key to that though and speaking to Football Odds, the 46-year-old says it's a contest Rangers can't lose. Lennon explained: "You have to say the title race is over if Celtic win the game. 12 points is a lot, and if Celtic win the momentum will all be with them. Celtic have not been great in terms of the games earlier on, however when building up to these games, the Old Firm will always be at the back of everybody’s mind.
