Will + infinitive

We use will + infinitive These predictions can be based


structure to make predictions on our opinion or guess, not
about the future evidence
Example:

My team will win the game.


This is a prediction of a future event, based on your own opinions or
beliefs.

Even if your team has won in the past, there is no real 'evidence' that your
team will win until the game is over.
