Brighton & Hove Albion have been in an excellent run of form of late, finally seeing their strong performances yielding big results, with superb wins against the likes of Spurs and Liverpool over the past few days.

Throughout the current campaign, broadcaster and football pundit Mark Lawrenson has made his weekly scoreline predictions for BBC Sport, playing against a different celebrity guest each week.

Here's a look at how Brighton would be faring in the Premier League table, if all of Lawro's scoreline predictions had come true so far in the 2020/21 season:
