🐙 Gary predicts
1–1 · Draw · 50% confidence
"The data points to a stubborn stalemate under the lights, with Villa struggling to break down a resilient Viking wall in this European encounter. My tentacles sense a fifty-fifty split that leaves both sides unsatisfied and the points shared at one apiece. The numbers have spoken, so go ahead and bet against the ink if you think you know better."
