I don't think it's unpredictable.
By far his biggest supporters are white liberals and the young... based on recent electoral performance those demographics (18-29 & self identified liberals) largely either vote for the democratic candidate or at worse stay home. If Trump is the nominee they'll come out... Bernie's signature issues are income inequality and the corporate plutocracy I can't imagine anyone whose against those coming out for Trump (who may as well be the poster child for same).
Clinton's coalition is basically the same coalition as Obama. If she can get it out to vote at the same level as in 2012 she'll win.
