‘Still think’ – Mark Lawrenson states his prediction for Norwich City v Arsenal

Norwich City are set to welcome Arsenal on Boxing Day in the Premier League (December 26th). Ahead of the clash, Mark Lawrenson has stated his prediction on Sunday’s match result. Lawrenson believes the Gunners will continue their recent good form by picking up all the 3 points.

“Arsenal are flying at the moment. The games are coming thick and fast but they will be happy to keep playing while they are still winning," Lawrenson wrote in his column for BBC Sport.   “As I’ve said before I don’t often fancy the Gunners on the road, but they enjoyed themselves at Elland Road against an out-of-sorts Leeds side last weekend and this is another away game where they will be thinking they should win.   “What kind of performance we see from Norwich will depend a lot on which players they have available.   “They pushed Manchester United close at Carrow Road a couple of weeks ago, but I still think a confident, in-form Arsenal will take the points.”  

Lawrenson’s prediction: Norwich City 1-2 Arsenal
