Lawro's final-day Premier League predictions vs Loyle Carner
- Published
Lawro is making predictions for all 380 top-flight matches this season, against a variety of guests.
This weekend he is up against hip hop star and Liverpool fan Loyle Carner, who is excited about the final day of the season, and dreading it at the same time.
"I am equally petrified and ecstatic," Carner told BBC Sport."But it has been a fantastic season and, whatever happens next in the title race, the standard of competition with City has been so high.
"Right now, though, I am probably more excited about playing Spurs in the Champions League final than the final day of the Premier League season, because it is in our hands and it feels more achievable.
"Tuesday night's win over Barcelona was just incredible. I was playing a show in London while it was on and I came off stage and I was told that we had won 4-0, so yeah that was one of the best nights of my life.
"I am hoping Sunday will be the same, and I will get to watch this time. I am playing in Paris on Tuesday so I am free this weekend, and I won't be missing any of it."
Loyle's new album 'Not Waving, But Drowning' is out now
