lyx don't know what latex will do with the citation.
from my point of view all classes insert one space
between text and citation. you can change this by
\makeatletter % all in latex preamble
\renewcommand{\@cite}[2]{[{#1\if@tempswa , #2\fi}]} % for text-labels
\makeatother
it's the ONE space before "#2". it's possible to delete this space
