Lawro the Twunt says...

Everton v Tottenham (1730 GMT)

Tottenham are stuttering a little bit and are having to get used to being without a few key players - Michael Dawson is the latest one to get injured.

Everton, on the other hand, are unbeaten in eight games and we know how competitive they are against the leading teams. They will swamp the midfield and really get at Spurs.

Spurs are going through a poor run that has killed off any lingering title hopes but I don't think they have gone off the boil because of the talk of their manager Harry Redknapp taking the England job or even that this is them finished for the season.

They have just hit the buffers a bit, something which happens to everyone.

Prediction: 2-1

2 losses against United and Arsenal is a poor run? Oh how I've waited for these halcyon days. And I love Daws, but he's not a key player, and other than possibly Lennon what key players are missing this weekend?
 
Losing to Man U and Arsenal; GHod we're so brick. Leon Osman and Phil Neville are going to run this show. 15-0 Everton.
 
Losing to Emirates Marketing Project twice, Man Utd twice, Arsenal and Stoke away alllllll season, we're fudging brick
 
It has to be said that Lawro's predictions for Spurs this season have been surprisingly accurate - he's spot-on with 53 points won.

Here are all of Lawro's 2011-12 Premier League predictions, together with how the League Table would look like if his forecasts were correct...

Tottenham v Bolton (1730 GMT)

Bolton got a good win last week and they have been difficult for the club to come by this season. A lack of technology might have helped them but a win is a win and it will have given them a great fillip.

They got to the semi-final last season but got done 5-0 by Stoke and, while they might be thinking they can get back to Wembley and abolish those memories, you never really do.

The Premier League is the priority for them and if you told Bolton fans they would lose to Tottenham but stay in the Premier League they would snap your hand off.

Tottenham should really have got a point in the 1-0 loss at Everton last time out as they dominated the second half.

There is an argument that they are chasing a place in the Champions League with a top four Premier League finish but they will want to win this competition. Tottenham fans love a cup final, don't they?

Spurs have lost the last three league games but I don't think that's because they have been affected by talk of manager Harry Redknapp taking over as England manager but more that they have had some tough games by playing Manchester United, Arsenal and an on-form Everton. It's only a blip.

Harry has been there before and Tottenham are the team to beat in the FA Cup as they have the most potent attack left in the competition.

Lawro's prediction: 2-0
