FA Cup fourth-round predictions: Lawro takes on Casey Stoney
- Published
BBC Sport's football expert Mark Lawrenson is pitting his wits against a different guest each week this season.
His opponent for FA Cup fourth-round weekend was England women's captain Casey Stoney, a two-time FA Women's Cup winner who has played in five finals.
Stoney won the FA Women's Cup for the second time with Charlton in 2005
The Arsenal Ladies defender, who has rejoined her first club ahead of the new Women's Super League season, told BBC Sport: "They are some of the best memories I have had in my career.
"The Women's FA Cup final is the biggest day in the women's calendar - everyone wants to get there and play in it. I've played in quite a few and I was fortunate enough to win two of them.
"In the 2005 final, we played at Upton Park and I was captain of Charlton when we beat Everton 1-0. I was captain and I got to lift the cup, which was one of my proudest moments.
"Now I am back at Arsenal, who are the current holders. We will be looking to do well in it again next season because it would be great to experience another cup final day and win some more silverware."
