Last week, there were more than 50,000 votes on the outcome of Liverpool versus Norwich. Lawro predicted a Liverpool win and 87% of you agreed with him, while 7% went for a Canaries victory and 6% thought it would be a draw.

Lawro is making predictions for all 380 top-flight matches this season, against a variety of guests.

His guest this week is swimmer Adam Peaty.

Peaty, 24, had a successful time at last month's World Aquatics Championships, where he defended his 50m and 100m breaststroke titles, won the men's 4x100m medley relay and claimed bronze in the mixed event.

He is a Nottingham Forest fan.
