Premier League predictions: Lawro v boxer Kell Brook
Last updated on .From the section Football
BBC Sport's football expert Mark Lawrenson is pitting his wits against a different guest each week this season.
His opponent for this weekend's Premier League fixtures is boxer Kell Brook, the new IBF welterweight champion.
Sheffield United fan Brook, who beat Shawn Porter on points to take the title in Los Angeles on Saturday, will make his predictions on Friday.

A correct result (picking a win, draw or defeat) is worth ONE point. Getting the exact score correct earns THREE points.
Last weekend, Lawro got six correct results from 10 Premier League games, with no perfect scores. His tally of six points saw him beaten by The Courteeners frontman Liam Fray, who also got six correct results, but managed two perfect scores, for a total of 10 points.
We're keeping a record of the totals for Lawro and his guests (below), and showing a table of how the Premier League would look if all of Lawro's predictions were correct (at the bottom of the page).
