Euro 2016: Lawro's predictions - opening games

  • Published
BBC Sport expert Mark Lawrenson

BBC Sport football expert Mark Lawrenson is predicting the outcome of every game at the 2016 European Championship.

He starts with the opening games in each group, which include England v Russia, Wales v Slovakia and Northern Ireland v Poland.

Lawro also picks his two teams to automatically go through from each group into the knockout stage, and his six teams which will finish bottom and definitely go home (four of the six third-placed teams also go through to the last 16).

You can make your own predictions and take on your friends and other fans using the BBC's Euros Predictor.

Lawro was speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan.
