Premier League predictions: Lawro v Mumford & Sons
BBC Sport's football expert Mark Lawrenson is pitting his wits against a different guest each week this season.
Lawro's opponents for this weekend's Premier League fixtures areMarcus Mumford and Winston Marshall from indie band Mumford & Sons.
Both men grew up as Manchester United fans but lead singer Marcusstarted watching Wimbledon when he was nine.
He told BBC Sport: "My first Wimbledon game was against United when David Beckham scored from the halfway line at Selhurst Park on the opening day of the 1996-97 season.
"I missed it because I was eating my chips and did not see it until I watched it on Match of the Day later."
Banjoist Winston saw his first United game at the age of six and explained: "Eric Cantona is my all-time hero. I once went to get a tattoo of his face on my upper arm - I had the portrait drawn up and everything.
"It looked great but then I flexed my arm and the face screwed up and he looked exactly like Marcus. I decided I did not want him on my arm for the rest of my life."
The pair met some United players before their gigs in Manchester last week, although one of their jokes did not go down too well with Wayne Rooney.
Winston added: "Marcus said a very funny thing to Wayne, who asked him how many songs he wrote a year.
"Marcus replied 'about as many goals as you score a year'. Wazza didn't like it. He didn't laugh."
You can hear more from Marcus and Winston on Football Focus at 12:10 GMT on Saturday on BBC One and the BBC Sport website.
