It probably doesn’t come as a big surprise that the USA is considered to be the significant favourite to win the most medals and the most gold medals.
Right now, punters will find that the USA can be backed around a slim 1/7 listing to achieve more gold medals than any other nation at the Olympics. China are the second favourite with a 36/5 listing being floated by several bookmakers. Japan are a lengthy 25/1 shout while Great Britain round out the top four favourites with a 25/1 best price.
The Americans are an even shorter 1/9 price tag to have the most overall medals with China at 9/1, Russia at 33/1 and Great Britain at 50/1. You can back China to finish second in the medals table at 4/13, while Great Britain can be backed around 21/5.
The over/under on total gold medals for the USA is 43.5 while Great Britain’s line is set at 13.5. Canada is set at 4.5 gold medals while China sees their line set at 36.5.
Most of the popular events see the Americans heavily fancied with basketball being one of the most interesting markets in the Olympics since the widely-respected American side are winless in both of their exhibition games. The bookmakers still have them priced as short as 4/13 to stand atop the podium while Spain are the clear second favourites at 25/2. Australia trade at 25/1 while France can be backed at 40/1.
