Mark Lawrenson has predicted the outcome of Arsenal's next game which will come up on Monday night.

The Gunners will take on Sutton United in the fifth round of the FA Cup after defeating Southampton 5-0 in the previous round.

Ahead of the clash, Lawrence has tipped Arsenal to record a favourable result after a bad week at Bayern Munich.

The Gunners were trashed 5-1 by the Bavarians and they are now on their way out of the UEFA Champions League for the season.

Arsenal are fourth on the league log with the only hope they have being the FA Cup trophy, hence they are expected to give in their all in the next game.

Writing in his column for BBC Sport, Lawrenson said: “On certain days against certain teams, Arsenal are mentally weak. That is not something that you can instil in people and without it there is only so far you can go. We saw that in that 5-1 defeat away to Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

“I’m a massive fan, but I think that Arsene Wenger will leave at the end of the season when his contract is up. I think it has come to a natural conclusion.

“I think Arsenal will win against Sutton. It’ll be tough because Sutton are very good at playing on their artificial surface, but they can’t win an argument in the National League. Since beating Leeds in the fourth round, they have scored one goal and conceded 10 in four matches. It is understandable if they have switched off mentally.”
