Lawro & DC Predictions v Barcodes (H)
Posted: Fri Aug 31, 2018 1:36 pmLawro and Merson got their predictions wrong last week, as did we all I expect!! They are in Synch this week.
This week's guest is BBC Radio 1 presenter Greg James. Greg has just completed his second week as Radio 1's Breakfast Show host and he said: "The early
starts are fine once you get here. Getting here is the real pain, but it is a great fun job to do and I love it."
Greg is an Arsenal fan but admits he doesn't quite have the same passion for football as he did as a kid. "When Blackburn won the Premier League that was when I was obsessed with it," he added. "I was a proper Arsenal fan. I got all the sticker books I had all the kits but then I just sort of drifted.

Newcastle were smashed out of the Carabao Cup. I know they go on about Mike Ashley - and they have a point - but he isn't going to change. They have to get on with what they have got. This will be a very tough game.
Greg's prediction: 4-1
Lawro's prediction: 3-0

You have got to feel for the Newcastle fans. Fifty-five thousand supporters turn up every week and now they're out of the cup. Now it's a long season for them - last week's stats against Chelsea were bordering on atrocious. With 25 minutes played, it was 90 per cent possession to 10 per cent in favour of Chelsea. I've seen that in five-minute spells, I've never seen it in a 25-minute spell, ever.
Newcastle will go to the Etihad and defend, but Man City will break them down, 100 per cent. It's just when, and how many times. The Newcastle fans packed the away ends at Nottingham Forest [in the Carabao Cup], and they're out of the cup already. I think they'd probably rather win something and spend another season in the Championship than watch this every week at the moment.
PAUL PREDICTS: 3-0
