For Canada, I think 24 total with 4-5 golds would be expected.  

 

This is probably the most unpredictable Olympics since WWII, even at the Games there could be an outbreak which sidelines half the athletes competing.  

Hasnt happenned at any of the qualifier events or track meetings on any grand scale.

Something like this. 20-24 range seems possible. Ideally over 22

Yes - I'd be surprised if it happened on a big scale but shocked too if not one medal contender had to pull out in Tokyo

I tried to calculate a sort of probability of :HUN GOLDs like one of the most vulgar bookmakers. I rated the events with the possibility of GOLD medal with a number from 0.5 to 5.5, which represent a percentage,  and I considered a base of 6 points as an absolute certainly (100%):
 

5 points: (>80%)

4 points: (near 66%)

3 points: (50%)

2 points: (near 33%)

1 points: (<17%)

 

Swimming:

 

Men's 200 Butterfly - 5.5
Women's 400 I.M. - 3

Women's 200 Butterfly - 1
Men's 100 Butterfly - 1
Men's 10Km -  1

 

Canoeing:
 

Women's K4 500m - 5

Women's K2 500m - 4
Men's K1 1000m - 3

Men's K1 200m - 3

Women's K1 500m - 1.5

Women's C2 500m - 1

 

Fencing

 

Men's Team Sabre - 2.5

Men's Épée Ind. - 2

Men's Sabre Ind. - 2

Women's Sabre Team - 1

Women's Sabre Ind. - 1

 

Wrestling

 

Greco-Roman 77kg - 4

Greco-Roman 87kg - 1.5

 

Modern Pentathlon:

 

Men's - 1

Women's - 1

 

Water Polo:

Men's - 1.5

Women's - 0.5

 

Judo:

 

Men's 90 kg - 1

 

Athletics

 

Heptathlon - 1

 

Shooting

 

Men's 10m Air Rifle - 0.5

Men's 50m 3 Rifle three positions - 0.5

Mixed 10m Air Rifle Team - 1

 

GRAND TOTAL: 51

51/6(100%) = 8.5 GOLD MEDALS

For approximation down and considering the margin of error due to extreme poverty of accuracy of such type of calculation, to date I would predict the usual 8 GOLD medals, even 7 if we consider the fact that these calculation are perhaps "biased evaluation" made by a supporter not an expert and impartial statistician.

 

I know this is crazy but the countdown is now to -16. Understand me a little, at least... 

 

 

 

 

If you have time, can you do this also for overall medal chances (not only gold) for :HUN in these events?

Re-reading my first post, I should have said "possible" instead of "expected".  My prediction is probably the upper limit for total and golds.  

For Poland ?? I think 6-7 medals. (one rowing, 2 athetics (men's hammer and women's hammer), one cayak (Walczykiewicz), one team sport (3x3 basketball/volleyball),  2 from other sport (for example shooting - Bernal) 

INDIA:

 

80% medal chances :

Weightlifting 1 (49kg women)

Boxing 1 (men fly weight)

Wrestling 2 ( men 65kg , women 53 kg)

Shooting 1 ( mixed team pistol)

 

Total= 5

 

 

 

50% medal chances

Archery 1 ( mixed team / men team)

Badminton 1 ( women singles)

Boxing 2 ( men welter weight / women fly weight / light weight )

Hockey 1 ( men )

Wrestling 1 ( men 57kg / men 86 kg )

Shooting 2 ( mixed rifle / men 10m piston / women 10m pistol / women 50m pistol / men 10m rifle / women 10m rifle )

Atheletics 1 ( men jevlin)

 

Total = 9 

 

 

So combining both i think INDIA should win 5-7 medals

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
