Mark Lawrenson is making predictions for all 380 top-flight matches this season, against a variety of guests.

This week's guest is comedian and TV presenter Karl Pilkington, who has a new show called “Sick Of It” that started on Sky One this week.

Lawro’s prediction:

Burnley picked up their first Premier League win last weekend, although Bournemouth had the better of the early play.

I have been reading what Clarets boss Sean Dyche said about their preparations for that game, after his side had made such a poor start to the season, and he and his players had sat down in the week and had a big chat about everything.

I can imagine Dyche doing that, and it worked.

Cardiff, in contrast, were on the wrong end of a drubbing by Manchester City and they are still without a win.

Bluebirds boss Neil Warnock has got so much experience that I bet he has barely mentioned that defeat since. They will definitely be competitive in this game, although Burnley will cope with the physical side of their game.

1-1.

Karl Pilkington’s prediction:

Burnley got a good result against Bournemouth last week, so I'm going with them again.

1-3.

I'm still none the wiser.

One of these modern "Emperor's new clothes" unfunny "comedians" perhaps?

Each to their own I suppose.

He’s the sidekick of Ricky Gervais who comes out with such words of wisdom as “you never see an old man eating a twix”.

He’s even more of a beaut than Lawro.

I wouldn’t take much notice tbh.
