Predicted for 22. August 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
McIlroy started as one of five co-leaders after Round 1 (−6 each: Woodland, Spaun, Gotterup, Clark). World #1 Scottie Scheffler began at +2 and is behind. DraftKings Tour Championship odds (Aug 12) show McIlroy as clear #2 behind Scheffler (+920 vs +350), implying a BMW Championship win probability of ~22–26%. Scheffler remains structurally dangerous (comebacks are his trademark), but McIlroy's R1 co-leading position and historical strength at Bellerive support the call.
Data basis for this prediction
- DraftKings: Tour Championship Odds — Scheffler +350, McIlroy +920 (Stand 12.08.2026)
- Yahoo Sports: BMW Championship R1 Leaderboard — 5er-Spitzengruppe bei −6 (McIlroy, Woodland, Spaun, Gotterup, Clark) (21.08.2026)
- PGA Tour: FedExCup Standings — Scheffler führt mit großem Vorsprung (August 2026)

Verdict: Miss
Scottie Scheffler gewann das BMW Championship 2026 in Bellerive mit −15 (Gesamtscore 265). McIlroy, der nach Runde 1 mit −6 in Führung lag, gewann das Turnier nicht. Scheffler holte trotz schwachem Start (Runde 1: +2) auf und siegte – exakt das in der Prognose als Hauptrisiko genannte Szenario ('Comeback aus Rückständen ist sein Markenzeichen').

Manchester City (2026/27 record: 5-1) host SSC Napoli on 24 November 2026 at the Etihad. Bookmaker odds imply ~80% for a City home win (quote ~1/4); a Napoli away win trades at ~10/1 (~9% implied). Statistical models assign City 66% win probability and a draw 18%. Napoli have never won away against a Premier League top-6 side in this Champions League season. Market anchor: bookmaker odds imply 79–80%; own estimate follows the conservative model value of 66%, as Napoli historically respond better to continental pressure than their domestic form alone suggests.

BVB sits 2nd in the Bundesliga after 8 matchdays (18 pts) with the best defence in the league (6 goals conceded). Bookmaker odds for a Dortmund home win imply ~79% (quote ~1.26); statistical models put BVB at 74.96%. Expected Goals: BVB 2.47 xG vs. Elversberg 0.81 xG. Elversberg failed to score in three consecutive away fixtures — no other club in the division is currently as barren on the road. Probability set slightly below market implied to account for Elversberg's proven giant-killing capacity this season.

RB Leipzig have never lost a Bundesliga home fixture against FC Augsburg (10 games: 9 wins, 1 draw). Augsburg are currently on a 6-match winless run (3 draws, 3 losses) — the longest such drought in the top flight right now. Winger Antonio Nusa is in excellent form; a Leipzig win would set a Bundesliga record against Augsburg. Bookmaker odds imply ~60% (quote ~1.65); the unblemished home record and Augsburg's poor form justify raising the estimate to 65%.
