He has predicted a Man utd 2-0 win. That was a suprise. I see Everton got another 1-1 draw away after being battered. Will they play another frustrating 1-1 draw at Old Trafford. Swansea beat them 3-0 with very few shots but Liverpool and Krasnodar and Wolfsburg have battered them or be it they got jammy against Wolfsburg.
...............................................................................
Lawro most hilarious part of making the prediction, I watched that game and I never seen a side so bad at defending, it was embarrassing at times yet Lawro thinks Evertons defence was much imrproved yet they let in another 21 shots on there goal at Krasnodar:
"Everton's defence was much improved at Anfield after a poor start to the season and they will need to be just as solid to keep United out.
That is a big ask. United still have defensive concerns but, even with Wayne Rooney suspended, they still have some amazing talent to pick from up front. "
..................................................
I think Everton are the best side to explode into life this season and it being an early 12am kick off after they travel back.
It will take 8 hours 15 minutes to travel back by plane so they should be back by tommorow morning and will be jetlagged. That is 3893km/2419miles to get there and another 3893km/2419miles to get back so 7786km/4838miles or to be precise 4 837.9961 miles. I would expect Friday to be a day off. So they should recover by Saturday to do light training and tactics as well as working on shape/marking and will then have to travel to Manchester which is 34.1 miles away around 48 mins or 60 mins if busy for a Sunday 12.00 kick off so rush hour on sunday morning will mean players will just want to get the game out the way.
Looking at the amount of shots Everton been conceding and there lethal run in front of goal makes me think with the early kick off, man utd players freshness and our better starting xi that a Man utd 6-2 Everton scoreline is on the cards.
Arsenal had trouble in early kick offs, I reckon Everton will do so too after all that travelling. They took quite a lot of the first team players to Krasnodar.

Damn I went to all that effort and I read:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/29449188
"Martinez made five changes for the 4,800-mile round trip, but kept his defensive unit - including holding midfielder Gareth Barry - intact."
Merson predictions:

Tottenham to lose 1-3 and QPR to get smashed 3-0 as well. I am hoping spurs get a draw against Southampton so we can claw the deficit back on Southampton and gain on Tottenham too.
Lawro Predicts Man utd win. My take on this
posted on 5/3/15
BTW Lawro never watches any of the games. He mentioned man utd away to west brom saying if not for de gea we would have lost and now trolls Villa who completely dominated the game and had enough chances to win 2 games. I had BT sport and watched that Villa game and Villa looked very good in all areas. Stats show Villa had 16 shots 8 on target to west brom 3 shots 1 on target. How you can predict west brom to win after villa dominated them so much its amazing. Yes its another game but to judge probably villas most dominant display since they beat Leicester in the league not cup as unconvincing is hilarious. These pundits like Lawro Merson don't even watch the teams they comment on or with any level of detail.

Question is will Arsenal win at OT since there smash and grab raid in 2006? The only time they got anything there was after we had a 3yd onside goal disallowed to clinch the title in our no shot on target game but we did have 1 tap in square offside when so far onside.

Merson with his expert nonsense talk:
United are waiting to be on the end of something and I can see them losing two or three nil before the end of the season. He does predict a 1-1 draw though
I know we could lose if we don't play at a good intensity but Arsenal are only doing just enough usually to win and sit very deep. Its great we are playing them now playing our best football of the season.

Circa Waves' Kieran Shudall got 17 points I believe the most by anyone this season vs lawro 9. Shudall could have even got another 6 more points quite easily to.

Merson is a troll, if we lose to Tottenham that doesn't mean its over for top 4. Last season it was pretty much over but the reality is we are doing better then last season and with head to heads so it means we having more points and a lot less points needed for top 4 we can still drop around 10-11 points and finish top 4 me thinks. This will mean 72-73points.

So Lawro says 1-1 and Merson predicts 2-2. I find it astonishing people keep trolling us. We are top of all performance indicators in recent times and Liverpool look like a pub side at times and thats them playing really well. Man utd dominating 90% of our last 2 league games is playing badly while Tottenham Liverpool Arsenal scavenging wins= playing well

So 1-3 win for Man utd by one of eggheads people.
