Pronóstico vs prediccion

I looked on Wiktionary and noticed that ‘prediccion ‘ means ‘prediction’ in Spanish. When I took the quiz, why was ‘pronostico’ the correct answer?

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "prediction/forecast"

Hola Ariana

The word predicción is also used in Spanish as a synonym of "prediction", but in the "betting" context (I imagine you were doing our gap-fill about the football pools) the word used is "pronóstico".

I hope this clarified it.

Saludos
