The 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, already promise several differences from the 2014 games in Sochi. In the Russian Games, the warm temperatures made the needed snowy surfaces difficult to come by; in South Korea, the temperatures are hovering just above zero degrees Fahrenheit. The two Koreas are competing under one unified flag, and the Russians — expected to dominate the Winter Games in most years — are banned as a nation from competing because of the systematic cheating that they used to gather medals by the boatload in Sochi, but many Russian athletes have passed their own individual protocols and will compete as Olympic Athletes from Russia, marching under the Olympic flag. So this could be a wide-open Olympics as far as medals go. For sports betting enthusiasts, we’ve put together a set of predictions for you to use as you consider your Olympic betting.
