Should there be a prediction on the match page when the match is already played? #85

On one hand, it's kinda silly to predict things from the past. We could of course call it something else than prediction for past matches.

On the other hand, if the 'predicted' score is pretty good, it could be cool to show how good the algorithm is.

If someone wants to see the predictions of those matches to check if they're somewhat accurate, just change if($data['inFuture']) in MatchController@index to if(true) and remove the if and endif where the predictions are echoed in the match.match view.

Depends, if our algorithm's result is close to the actual outcome, sure. If it's not: better not show it.

if we show them, then the user will know how accurate the predictions are or were.

I'll mention in the report how they can force it to show locally. Don't think we should show them by default.
