Lawro has gone for away win. Aston Villa v Liverpool (19:15 BST) This fixture turned into a pivotal game for Liverpool last season - they were 1-0 down with three minutes left last November, but ended up winning 2-1. It was one of those games where Jurgen Klopp's side were not at their best, but still found a way to win. Liverpool are playing well at the moment, though. Yes, you could say the same about Aston Villa - and they already look a better team than they were last season - but you have to consider who they have played so far. Villa beat Sheffield United, who are yet to score a goal, and Fulham, who have shipped plenty. Liverpool are a much sterner proposition at both ends. Lawro's prediction: 0-2 Caroline's prediction: Villa have made a good start but Liverpool are still the team to beat - Jurgen Klopp has got them so well-drilled and they have lost none of their focus. 1-4
