Neil Lennon believes Champions League ties will help fill the Old Firm void

Neil Lennon believes the UEFA Champions League ties will help fill the void left by the absence of Old Firm derbies this season.
"So at the minute, in terms of finances we will miss the four Old Firm games but it is not a huge loss from a footballing sense because obviously the European games will make up for that." Dundee, who were invited into the top flight at the last minute, are struggling at the bottom of the SPL table with four points from six games but Lennon is reading nothing into the visitors' early-season form. "It is an opportunity that Dundee may not have had, so why not make the most of it?" he said "They will come with no pressure on them tomorrow and that is dangerous for us so we have to be in the right frame of mind going into the game."
