    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is FC BW Linz win, at 80.0%. Its single most likely scoreline is 3–1.

    It puts both teams scoring at 61% and over 2.5 goals at 79%.

    A 80% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
