Norway has taken over as the -1500 favorite at FanDuel to finish with the most gold medals, which is an implied probability of 93.75%. As of updating this article, Norway has seven gold medals, one more than Italy, with six, but there are plenty of events still to come that the Norwegians are expected to medal in.

The only country within reach is the United States of America, which currently has four gold medals, but like Norway, it has plenty of events left to rack up some golds.

Heading into the Winter Games, Norway was listed as the -180 favorite to finish with the most gold medals. They finished with the most golds in three straight Olympics heading into this year's Winter Games.

Not only has Norway dominated the Olympics thus far, but there are some countries that have failed to live up to expectations, further opening the door for yet another Norway win. Canada was fourth on the odds list at +1500, but as of updating this article, they have yet to win a single gold.

Italy entered the Games at +3500 to win the most gold in their home country, but despite having the second most gold at the moment, with six, their odds have fallen to +8000, due to few prospective gold winners in the second half of the Games.

Norway is well on its way to cruising to another win at the Winter Olympics.
