    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is FC BW Linz win, at 70.8%. Its single most likely scoreline is 0–2.

    It puts both teams scoring at 53% and over 2.5 goals at 63%.

    A 71% 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.
