BBC pundit predicts third back to back loss

BBC pundit Mark Lawrenson has predicted more misery for Manuel Pellegrini with the third back to back loss in the Premier League for West Ham this weekend.

Lawro writes on the BBC website “Leicester had their chances in the first half against Arsenal on Monday but finished up well beaten in the end.

West Ham also lost last time out but were a bit unfortunate to be defeated by Tottenham, with Hugo Lloris making some great saves for Spurs.

The Hammers’ defence is a lot more solid these days, but the serious injury that winger Andriy Yarmolenko suffered against Spurs is a big blow to them. Leicester’s home form has been a bit up and down this season but I think they will edge this one.

Lawro’s prediction: 2-0

However, Lawro’s guest predictor singer Richard Ashcroft from the Verve disagrees with the BBC man by saying “It might surprise people but I think West Ham are going to nick this one. 0-1″
