Can I Predict the Premier League? (31 Aug-1 Sept)

I'm back online, no thanks to Orange Broadband (EE) messing it up. I'll mention that saga another time.

Before I begin with this weekend's Premier League predictions, here is a recap on last weekend. For those who follow me on twitter I posted my predictions on my twitter feed. This is how I fared compared to Lawro's predictions.

Looks like Lawro could only get four out of ten match predictions correctly. While I manage to get one more with five.

Correct predictions by me = 9/20
Correct predictions by Lawro = 9/20

No Leader Sofa

Onto this weekend's matches. Due to Chelsea playing in the UEFA Super Cup, there are only nine matches. I will confess when I saw the fixture list, making these predictions were hard to call.

If you decide to be foolish and bet £1 and all nine predictions are correctly predicted by me then you will win £3,500.11. If  you go to what Lawro is predicting then you could win £2,174.48.
