The week Lawro is up against a couple of american footballers who know nothing about football....its not SOCCER. Why is it called American FOOTBALL anyway when to foot is only used to kick the ball about 5 seconds a game. Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarter-back Ryan Fitzpatrick and Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu.

No merson this week, must have fell off the wagon!

We know the problem with Arsenal is that, while they can score goals, they struggle to stop them. Away from home, they haven't kept a clean sheet in the league all season.

So that is why I am going to go with City to bounce back here. Yes, their whole team was flat against Newcastle on Tuesday but in my experience that just makes it easier to lift them collectively.

Every team puts in poor performances sometimes, and nobody really knows why, but I don't think it is a sign that City are about to struggle.

Lawro's prediction: 2-0

Mo's prediction: 1-2

Ryan's prediction: 1-1

I am scared of this one for my former team. Yes we have got into the top four and are doing better than anticipated. But Man City will be angry and will be looking to close that gap before Liverpool play and we all know that City can rip any team apart. And because it is a big team coming to play them, they will be even more up for this, so I see nothing other than a comfortable City win and Arsenal could get a bit of a run around here.

This is the least hopeful I have been for an Arsenal game ever, I fear they could give us a real hiding and I think they will win 3-0, with the title race back on.

It could be more than 3-0 and that is what really worries me as Arsenal have no defence and we will have a full-back in Monreal playing at centre-back, so it is just a shambles defensively at the moment. And that is where I do not have any hope.

CHARLIE PREDICTS: 3-0 ()

My Arsenal-supporting colleague is agreeing with Charlie and says we wont have any trouble scoring.

A must win game. And if we win well it will put the jitters on the dippers.

Got a good record v Arsenal just of late overall and I think it will continue

We had a good record against Newcastle too, until Tuesday, we need to get our mojo back.

1-2

In all honesty, I think we'll have 3 shots on target at an absolute most. An improvement from the game at the Emirates but still not enough.

4-0 home win (a very sobering defeat)
