Burnley to win vs Norwich Chelsea to win vs Southampton Leeds to win vs Watford Wolves to win vs Newcastle ODDS – 13/2 with NetBet.Burnley vs Norwich
This is 19th versus 20th and neither side have managed a win yet, but Burnley have looked far more like getting one than Norwich have so far.Too often, the Canaries have been out-thought and out-gunned. They haven’t even got a point on the board after six games and there haven’t been too many moments when they have looked like getting one either.
Burnley, in contrast, have been much more competitive, even when they have lost.
Sean Dyche is going to have work cut out to keep the Clarets out of trouble but, from what I’ve seen of both teams, they should take the points here.
Lawro’s prediction: 2-1
Chelsea vs Southampton
Chelsea have lost their past two games, against Manchester City and Juventus, but this is not the start of any serious slump.
Blues boss Thomas Tuchel will demand a performance this time, and I would be shocked if their losing run continues on Saturday.
Southampton have looked good in some of their games, but that hasn’t been enough for them to win one yet.
Saints will probably adopt a similar approach to the one that got them a draw at Etihad Stadium a couple of weeks ago, and will hope for a similar performance too.
But a point is probably the best they can hope for again here – and I don’t see them getting one.
Lawro’s prediction: 3-0
Leeds vs Watford
Watford have shown they can be awkward opponents but Leeds are too easy to beat at the moment – if it’s not one part of their team that’s not functioning, it’s another.
Marcelo Bielsa’s side scored 12 goals in their first six Premier League games last season as a newly-promoted club – this time, they have managed only half as many.
There have been flashes of their old selves but, over 90 minutes, we are still waiting for them to put in the kind of performance that we got used to. Maybe Saturday will be the day that changes?
Lawro’s prediction: 2-0
Wolves vs Newcastle
Wolves have won two out of their past three games and they are playing like a team whose confidence has come back.
Do Newcastle go to Molineux and set themselves up to be hard to beat, or do they think this is a chance to get a first win of the season and go for it a little bit more than that?
I suspect it will be the former, but I don’t think it will work.
Lawro’s prediction: 2-1
