Lawrenson Syndrome

Anyone who follows Mark Lawrenson's tips on the BBC Sport website will probably have noticed that for him, no football team ever scores more than 2 goals.

All of his predictions involve teams drawing a blank, or scoring just one or two, despite evidence that shows at least one team out of the 20 in the Premier League will score 3 or more during that weekend's fixtures.

But eight games into Euro 2016, the tournament has Lawrenson syndrome. No team has scored 3 or more. So come on someone - let's prove Mark wrong to be so conservative with his predictions. How about 3 or 4 Sweden, or Belgium or Austria or Portugal?
