I won't say!  but here are my points of view individually:

 

-Germany is a bit stronger than in Tokyo.

-Argentina is a bit stronger too.

-GB is stronger.

-India is weaker.

-Belgium is weaker.

-Spain is stronger.

-Netherlands is pretty much the same level.

-Australia is weaker.

 

Overall this is a much more open tournament compared to Tokyo when Belgium v Australia was the obvious final beforehand. I can see any of these teams taking medals.

Coming into the Olympics, I definitely thought India was weaker than in Tokyo. However the hockey we've produced has been of a very high quality so far. Our passing, use of aerials and defensive structure seems much better overall, even though a bit of the attacking flair/effectiveness has gone down. 

Anyhow, here are my predictions for the knockouts: 

Germany vs Argentina: Germany win

Great Britain vs India: India win

Netherlands vs Australia: Netherlands win

Spain vs Belgium: Belgium win 

 

Germany vs India: India win 

Netherlands vs Belgium: Belgium win

 

Germany vs Netherlands: Netherlands win

Belgium vs India: Belgium win

 

🥇 Belgium 

🥈 India

🥉 Netherlands
