They are the favourite but I really wouldn't consider them to be safe. Japan is absolutely capable of beating them, especially in a one game winner take all situation. Honestly even Canada or Australia have a slim but not insignificant chance of beating the US.

I think all 14 gold medals in weightlifting are relatively safe picks

 

at least these one are very safe, 8 gold medals for China + 1 for Talakhadze

Artistic Swimming, team 

 Artistic Swimming, duet

 Table Tennis, men's team

 Table Tennis, women's team

 Water polo, women's team

I hope it true but there always some unexpected drama happen in OG so China never make it above 5 before. But I really hope they can make it this time.

The only safe one is Russia in artistic swimming and rhythmic gymnastics. Amy non judged sports nothing is guaranteed.
