Pundit Mark Lawrenson thinks Nottingham Forest will lose to Arsenal at the City Ground on Saturday evening.
The Premier League title is effectively out of Arsenal's grasp, with Manchester City cruising to the trophy, but Lawrenson does not believe the Gunners will down tools at the City Ground.
In fact, he thinks the opposite will be true, with Arsenal being allowed to play with freedom against Forest. That could prove dangerous for Steve Cooper's men, with Lawrenson predicting a 2-0 win for the visitors.

Lawrenson told Paddy Power: "Arsenal can just go out and play with a little bit of freedom because the title’s gone and the worst they can do is finish second. I expect they’ll win this. Nottingham Forest 0-2 Arsenal."
Lawrenson, therefore, disagrees with fellow pundit Chris Sutton, who has backed Forest to pick up a 1-1 draw. He said : "Because of Nottingham Forest's position, you know that they are going to really scrap for everything without having to throw caution to the wind, because their fate is in their own hands.
"At home is where it happens for them and while I don't think it will be a particularly pretty game, I can see Forest finding a way of picking up another point."
