#' @title Method to predict according to the stational difference time series model.
#'
#' @description This method implements the predicted value and their standard deviation according to
#' the regular difference time series model
#' \eqn{(1-B)^s y_{t}=a_{t}}{(1-B)^s y<sub>t</sub>=a<sub>t</sub>}.
#'
#' @param x object upon which the prediction will be made.
#'
#' @param StatDiff stational differences of the time series; by default it is 12L.
#'
#' @param forward integer indicating the number of periods ahead when the prediction will be made;
#' by default it is 2L.
#'
#' @param VarNames character vector with the variable names for which the prediction will be made;
#' by default it is NULL.
#'
#' @return It returns a \code{data.table} with components Pred and STD, containing the point
#' prediction and the estimated standard deviations, respectively, for each variable.
